An 11 year old kid was new to a school, but since the school found out he had a gene marker for cystic fibrosis (a disease he doesn't actually have) they wanted him transferred to a different school due to worries from "bacterial cross-contamination" between others with cystic fibrosis. The parents are fighting the school on it as much as they can. I guess they thought he had the disease itself, instead of just the gene for it.

All I can do is feel really sorry for him. It's like eugenics all over again.
