Vaccinations Required by Law in California
California Governor Jerry Brown signed the bill into law today.
It makes it mandatory that all school children in the state be vaccinated. There's no more exemption based on personal or religious beliefs.
The only exemption is for kids whose physicians verify that an existing or hereditary medical condition would be worsened by vaccination.
California joins Mississippi and West Virginia as the only states with such strict requirements.
If your personal or religious beliefs prevent you from having your kid vaccinated, then you need to home school your kid in order not to put other kids at risk. That's the law in California now.
The bill got pushed up the agenda after a measles outbreak at Disneyland last year.
A lot of California parents are celebrating the new law. But, some others are pissed off and crying -- most of them claim that vaccinations will give their children autism.
