Question

The day after returning to school from being on vacation in the Dominican Republic, 8 year old Kristen was sent home after she complained of a sore throat and was determined to have a low-grade fever by her school nurse. Her parents kept her home from school the next two days as her sore throat continued to get worse. After these two days, her neck had swollen to the point where she was having a hard time breathing. Her parents took her to the ER where the doctors collected a swab of her throat, which identified Gram positive rod bacteria. As they examined her throat and nose, the doctors observed a thick layer of gray tissue coating both areas. While collecting a medical history, the parents told the doctors that Kristen had never received the standard childhood vaccinations as they had opted not to vaccinate for religious reasons.
