jdsky Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 Making it mandatory would definitely be a shot in the arm some private schools need to get their enrollments up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Influenza is on the VFC list, but is not required to attend school (at least in Minnesota). Same with HPV. Just because the CDC adds it to the list does not make it mandatory.

Just what I had heard (from parents of young kids who work for me).....we will only know after the vote I guess.

ArcticCrusher Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 Interesting, I guess they tried to sneak this in with nobody asking questions. So what does it mean once a vax gets to be part of the children's immunization schedule? Automatic liability waiver for the manufactures so the EUA can be dropped and still have the same protections from being sued. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
