My question is, if a friend suspected this child had meningitis, why didn't she call the emergency services.

As for Mormons, if they want to refuse medical treatment for themselves, fine but they shouldn't be allowed to choose for their children. The are guardians, not owners of mini humans.
I don't think they refused vaccinations because they are Mormon, news agencies just love mentioning people's religion so you can come to conclusions like that. I just think they were deluded by their personal thoughts and views on health in general.
