Lawsuits can move forward against schools and medical clinics over Covid-19 vaccines given to children without their parents' permission, the North Carolina Supreme Court ruled Friday, overturning past rulings that had blocked the lawsuits.
The ruling was 5-2 along party lines, with all the Republicans in the majority and all the Democrats dissenting.
