MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Lipsey v. Reddy, No. 2:17-cv-1434-EFB P (E.D. Cal. 2018):

either condition at the time of the injections.3 Deliberate indifference requires such a showing. See Farmer v. Brennan, 511 U.S. 825, 837 (1994) (holding that an official cannot be liable for deliberate indifference "unless the official knows of and disregards an excessive risk to inmate health or safety; the official must both be aware of facts from which the inference could be drawn that a substantial risk of serious harm exists, and he must also draw the inference.").
