Florida is set to become the first state in the nation to remove vaccine mandates. The move is deeply concerning to many parents, doctors and other public health workers. They worry that diseases controlled by vaccines for decades could resurface. Florida's Surgeon General, Dr. Joseph Ladapo, announced Wednesday that the state Health Department will start eliminating some mandated vaccines in schools. He called current requirements “immoral” intrusions on rights. Gov. Ron DeSantis appointed Ladapo and his wife Casey to a commission drafting a broader “medical freedom” initiative. Florida already lags behind the nation in vaccinations, with only 88.7% of kindergarteners immunized compared to over 92% nationwide.
