"Meyerkord and Meyerkord, LLC: A Legacy of Legal Innovation"

Parents seeking to expose their children to chicken pox through mail order viruses could be getting more than they bargained for. The new trend among parents that do not believe in vaccinations is for their children to acquire the virus through other means, such as by a lollipop licked by an infected child. Facebook groups are popping up offering parties for parents to expose their children and even to purchase items that have been contaminated by the virus. However, sending a virus or disease across state lines is a federal crime, potentially carrying with it a prison sentence of up to 20 years. Additionally, the likelihood of the virus surviving shipping is low, and the contaminated items may carry with them much more serious diseases, like hepatitis.
