The US state of Florida recently held a hearing, hoping to continue to push forward the abolition of the compulsory vaccination program for children and remove the link between vaccination and school enrollment. At the hearing, pediatricians strongly objected to this. According to a report by the Florida News Service on the 15th, Florida plans to abolish the mandatory hepatitis B vaccine, chickenpox vaccine, haemophilus influenzae type b vaccine, and pneumococcal conjugate vaccine, but maintain the requirement that children must be vaccinated against polio, diphtheria, measles, rubella, mumps, and tetanus when entering school.
