Vaccination mandates have increasingly come under attack in Florida, with Joseph Ladapo, the state's surgeon general, likening the mandates to "slavery" late last year.
"Who am I to tell you what your child should put in your body?" he said. "I don't have that right. Your body is a gift from God."
The Staff: What nonsense from the SG as many many years ago Vaccinations were always given to protect others and the safety of the child. I remember all the Polo shots I got so the shots would protect me from Polo was also a GIFT from God as he was behind us getting the knowledge for the meds. This was also true for the Measles and Chicken Pox. Many parents do not wish to have their children protected and that is their right I suspect but it is NOT there right to expose others to what their child may be spreading. That is a difficult decision and the Church should not be forced to accept any mandate the state can come up with. If you wish to go to a Catholic school, follow the rules or go elsewhere instead of suing them to FORCE your opinion on others as your in the minority in this matter, PERIOD.
