Florida to End School Vaccine Mandates, Sparking Health Concerns

Florida is planning to stop making kids get vaccines to go to school.

Vaccines help protect children from getting sick with diseases like measles, mumps, and polio.

The state's Surgeon General believes parents should decide what goes into their child's body.

However, doctors and health organizations worry this could cause more kids to get sick, as diseases spread easily in schools.

They point out that vaccines have prevented millions of illnesses and saved many lives.

Some doctors are urging Florida to reconsider this decision to protect children's health.
