Pregnancy And Rsv Concerns

Summary

In Virginia, proving legal responsibility for an RSV infection requires demonstrating intentional harm or gross negligence. Courts typically do not hold individuals accountable for common infections unless there is clear evidence of gross negligence or intentional harm. Vaccination decisions fall under parental rights unless they endanger the childs life or health. For specific legal advice, consult with an attorney involved in your current trial.

So I’m currently * weeks pregnant my husband has a son with someone else his baby mamma just told us like 4 days ago he has RsV is a contagious virus can I be expose to it since I am pregnant and if I was to get sick for the cause of RsV will the baby mamma be responsible for it she’s out there being irresponsible
To provide an accurate response, could you please tell me where you are located?
Virginia
In Virginia, legally:
- Responsibility for your health is generally your own, not the 'baby mama's'.
- Infections can occur anywhere, proving fault is difficult.
- Courts usually require proof of intentional harm or gross negligence.

Please consult a healthcare professional about RSV exposure.
But let’s say her son was the one who infected me can the judge held her responsible?
In Virginia, establishing responsibility would depend on proving intentional harm or gross negligence. Getting infected, especially from a common virus, isn't generally grounds for legal action. It's crucial to discuss this with a legal professional for more precise advice.
They are currently on court trial can I bring this up to the judge and can she be held responsible for this ? For being a irresponsible mother ?
As per Virginia law, it's unlikely a court will hold her responsible based solely on an RSV infection. Proving gross negligence or intentional harm is necessary. Discussing this with your attorney is advised for precise guidance.
I went off on her couple days ago because she’s very irresponsible everytime her baby comes over his always getting sick
It's understandable you're upset. However, legally, frequent sickness isn't typically considered gross negligence. For precise advice, consult with an attorney involved in the current trial.
Her son hasn’t being vaccinated
In Virginia, vaccination decisions generally fall under parental rights unless it endangers the child's life or health. Courts may consider this in custody decisions, but it's unlikely to be considered in your situation. Consult with an attorney for more advice.
What if I lose the baby because her son exposed me to RSV
I'm truly sorry for your worry. In Virginia, to hold her legally responsible:
- You'd need to prove her son caused the infection.
- Show she was grossly negligent or harmful.
- Establish a direct link between the RSV and miscarriage.
Please consult your doctor and a legal professional.
