Florida Surgeon General Seeks To End All Vaccine Mandates
Florida Surgeon General Joseph Lattapo announced plans to work with the Department of Health and Governor Ron DeSantis to end all vaccine mandates in Florida law. Republican Senator Gail Harrell opposed the bill, citing a measles outbreak with over 140 cases in Florida this year. Some Republicans also expressed opposition to the measure. A new Florida bill allows parents to exempt children from school immunizations based on personal conscience. Democratic State Senator Carlos Guillermo-Smith noted that opting out for religious reasons is already easy under current laws. The bill passed despite opposition from minority Democrats in the Florida legislature. The effort focuses on what officials describe as medical freedom and vaccine choice.
