According to a new Idaho law that was implemented in July, Band-aids have been declared “too dangerous” for not only minors, but people of all ages.
Originally the law required parental consent to perform first aid treatment on minors. Parents were most upset that teachers were allowed to provide Band-aids to students.
“They’re too dangerous,” said passionate mother, Caren Smith, at a riot that took place in front of George Washington Elementary School in Lewiston. “I don’t need anyone else providing healthcare to my child.”
After further review and many complaints, lawmakers have scrapped parental consent forms and decided that first aid shouldn’t be performed under any circumstance.
This law is being enforced and taken seriously, especially after the student protests. Glenda Malpractice, a school nurse at Lewiston High School, has been sentenced to life in prison for handing a sophomore an ice pack after he plummeted down a flight of stairs on his way to his next class and twisted his ankle.
Witnesses say that when the SWAT team raided her office, they found a drawer full of highly illegal contraband like Tylenol, Ibuprofen, and worst of all, Band-aids.
When Malpractice was asked why she had these items, she responded with one word: “Justice.”
Many nurses are protesting the government’s attempt to shut down hospitals across Idaho, claiming that it is immoral to deprive people of healthcare. Others claim it is natural selection and it is best to let nature take its course.

Wait, you’re not supposed to eat them? I thought they were pretty good though

Is this satire?

Totally stupid
Cyndi Schefflin • Oct 2, 2024 at 10:10 AM
This is the most ridiculous law ever put on the books. How is a band aide dangerous. Why is that school nurse sentenced to life in prison for giving an ice pack? Finally is this just prank???

Hilarious. Nice spoof.

This is the most outrageous article I have read in a very long time. I hope that nurse gets justice and her charges over turned. If you don’t want kids having band aids or ice packs or any form of first aid given…state that on school forms or home school them. These things have been simple aids provided for as long as even my parents can remember. Simple items being nurturing to another human being. This isn’t right. That nurse never should have gotten life or any incarceration for being nurturing towards a hurt child. That child’s parent should of been incarcerated for false charges. What is our world coming to when nurses can’t even be civil or nurturing in there own job line towards our children

Can you not see that the article says “Satire”? This comment actually makes me want to become a D1 crashout.

Whiskey tango foxtrot! Does this also outlaw applying pressure to a gunshot wound after a school shooting?
Cmon now
Al • Oct 1, 2024 at 5:08 PM
This has to be a joke.
J Jappert • Oct 1, 2024 at 4:58 PM
This is a prank, right? There’s no way this is true.
Jim Martin • Oct 1, 2024 at 3:46 PM
Seriously, the only first aid required is to just walk it off!
Rook VanderLinden • Oct 1, 2024 at 3:40 PM
I understand this is satire but unnecessary and has no reason to be written or released. Why would you write this in a formate that could be perceived as real and true news. Seems that this article is made to create unneeded controversy and doubt in an already broken world. CLICKBAIT shameful and disappointing.

It seems that someone, with questionable intelligence, has made a ridiculous decision regarding medical attention. I was in the emergency room,last week, with a skin tear that definitely required bandaging.
This is a ridiculous idea which seems clouded by someone’s “concept of justice.”
RE-THINK, DO OVER

And as soon as some student falls & bleeding from the head, nose, or neck and a nurse doesn’t provide treatment, too bad for your kid. Then watch the lawsuits. What ever happened to the Good Samaritan Law? Sure am glad I read this little note because now, no, I won’t stop to help anyone!
Shannon Owen • Oct 1, 2024 at 2:30 PM
This is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard of. Being a nurse for 32 years I am shocked at the idiocy of our government regarding this issue. If someones child is not treated they sue and now they find a nurse at fault for applying a bandaid? What are we supposed to do? We are trained to provide care to people and now its illegal? I am embarrassed at what this country has become.
Dorretha Barnett • Oct 1, 2024 at 2:26 PM
What has happened to schools. We have alway used bandages on kids if they happened to fall and bleed. Now what is school going to d I now?
This world is so messed up. God needs help us get us back to real life.
Renae Drake • Oct 1, 2024 at 2:22 PM
This is ridiculous!!!!
Cynthia • Oct 1, 2024 at 1:08 PM
You can not be serious ? Band Aids ” dangerous ” ? This is ridiculous.
Callen • Oct 1, 2024 at 1:07 PM
So let the child bleed? Swell up before parent can arrive?
Kelly Chapin • Oct 1, 2024 at 10:52 AM
Good grief!! Keep your kids at home then!
Matt • Oct 1, 2024 at 10:38 AM
This is dumb, and there is no George Washington Elementary in Lewiston. Maybe try some research when you want to do dumb satire
Craig A Brooks • Oct 1, 2024 at 10:31 AM
I think the law makers houses should be searched for first aid supplies and held accountable,what the heck is going on .. too many stupid laws to what control our every move . Perhaps I need to move out of Idaho where there is more freedom and less laws
Floyd • Oct 1, 2024 at 9:27 AM
So one parent made a complaint and the law was changed, is that what I’m reading???
Jeri Brainard • Oct 1, 2024 at 9:20 AM
Absolutely ridiculous. This is something that should happen in California, NOT Idaho. Just goes to show we are being Californicated.
BETTY CASSITY • Oct 1, 2024 at 8:08 AM
I’m thinking that we really have a bunch of idiots running around out here. If Moms doesn’t want a nurse treating her child, then Moms needs to come pick up her kid and take care of the situation herself. Even if it’s a broken bone. Let her set the bone. 🤷♀️

hahaha……. you almost had me there. Good one!!!
