NFT: Calif. governor signs mandatory vaccination law

California Gov. Jerry Brown on Tuesday signed one of the nations toughest mandatory childhood vaccination bills, moving to end exemptions from state immunization laws based on religious or other personal beliefs.

The legislation, which passed the Senate on Monday and the Assembly on Thursday, would require more children who enter school, or day care, to be vaccinated against diseases such as measles and whooping cough.

The bill, one of the most controversial measures before the Legislature this year, was introduced because of concern about low vaccination rates in some communities and an outbreak of measles at Disneyland that ultimately infected more than 150 people.


Of course it'll be challenged.

California Gov says yes to poisoning more children with mercury and aluminum in manditory vaccines. This corporate fascist must be stopped.

Career suicide, or at least we can hope.

They were a couple for a while and have a kid together that's autistic. It's the whole reason for her soap box. Probably why.

His career has been in the shitter the last 10 years!
The kid is not Carrey's

in fact McCarthy has said the most disappointing thing about their break up is that he doesn't see the kid anymore. Apparently the kid became attached.
Absolutely

I hope every other state follows Cali's lead.

Though I think a couple already had similar laws.

BTW it's mandatory for entrance into school or day care...

people presumably have the right to decline if they don't want their children to partake in either.

Slow, rainy day. Lots of opportunity to hear about anecdotal cases of autism linked to vaccines. And the conspiracy between science and big business.
it's actually a fairly bold move for Jerry Brown

Considering how rich lefties (IOW, his most important constituency) are the driving force behind antivax.
although vaccination is "required"...  
Mike in St. Louis : 7/1/2015 9:15 am : link
in most states, if not all, to go to school, there are various personal and religious exemptions which are easy to invoke...right or wrong, this law is trying to stop that...
Good for CA  
NYerInMA : 7/1/2015 9:22 am : link
Hopefully other states follow its lead. Aside from necessary and valid medical exemptions, there should be zero tolerance for not vaccinating.

He's pretty much a pothead painter now who doesn't grrom himself much. So I guess his dead comedy career has sunk in.

Prior to this, West Virginia & Mississippi were the only 2 states that only allowed medical exemptions. Definitely not the 2 states I would've thought of...

well, look at it this way

No, her kid was from a different relationship, and as it turned out her kid didn't have autism but that didn't stop her from singlehandedly bringing back infectious diseases that had long since been nearly eradicated.

I hate her with every fiber of my being.

Rob in CT/NYC : 7/1/2015 10:23 am : link
is now a corporate fascist? Did I miss a meeting?

People are too far removed from what these diseases can do and no have perspective on the damage they have done throughout history - small pox killed 2 million people...


...in 1967.
the kid does not have autism.

Can we give these stupid anti-vaccers measles, mumps, and polio  
RobCarpenter : 7/1/2015 11:29 am : link
and send them to live on a deserted island somewhere? Anti vaccers are the worst types of people, just mouth breathers to the extreme.

As for Jenny McCarthy's kid, see link below

These anti-vaxxers are stupid and ignorant  
Jay on the Island : 7/1/2015 11:39 am : link
they put their children and other children in danger because they listen to people like Jenny McCarthy.

Sadly there's no monopoly on dumb. RFK jr needs to STFU already. The only reason he gets any attention is because of that last name.
