The majority of states and colleges still allow a medical exemption… but good LUCK getting an MD to stick their necks out for your kid to write them. Takes a special MD with a good soul to agree to it- for all the same reason we’ve seen in covid… they’ll strip an MDs medical license if they write too many pediatric vaccine exemptions. I have been in advocacy for years in the realm of childhood chronic illness… and it’s really difficult to get them.
CA was limiting pediatricians to writing five medical exemptions in their whole practice… if your kid was kid #6… they were SOL… and in NY state… they were refusing to approve medical exemptions for kids to attend school … there was a big case… absolutely outrageous… the NY state medical board over-road the child’s doctor and refused the medical exemption- even when the child was having over 100 uncontrolled seizures a day… so many NY parents fled to CT schools as medical refugees after NY state pulled this crap… for CT to then pull the religious exemptions here …
This issue of pediatric vaccination is AS BAD… if not worse… as the covid vaccines.
24 hours of public testimony in CT occurred against the mandate… one family right after another … and then no more testimonies were allowed. People were denied the right to speak. I protested in Hartford, CT during covid when they pulled the religious exemption. Bobby Kennedy was there and spoke. It was a a huge disappointment. They knew it was wildly unpopular and they did it anyway. The state of CT didn’t care.
The outcome was any child in the CT school system was ‘grandfathers in’ under the religious exemption… but no new kids would be allowed to enrolled in school using a religious exemption…. Which tells you this is NOT about health. It’s about control.
And I met families at the state capital… that will have to leave CT/move… Because their older children are enrolled in the school system and are now grandfathered in… but younger siblings… not in kindergarten yet, will not be afforded the same right.
It’s outrageous!!!
NJ held onto their religious vaccine exemption during the same period.
Truthseeker - thank you for your advocacy on be half of the children in CT. That had to be so heartbreaking to see so many citizens involved in trying to keep their rights get blitzed. The politicians had made up their minds and just allowed citizens to speak but they were determined to not listen to a word their citizens had to say. Sickening!

That’s exactly correct. Thanks King Ned Lamont … we will not get anywhere here in CT until he is sent packing.
