Florida surgeon announces plans to end the mandates of vaccines in schools

Florida general surgeon, Dr. Joseph Ladapo, announced that Sunshine’s state was trying to end all vaccination mandates.

At a joint press conference on Wednesday with Governor Ron Desantis, Ladapo said that Florida Department of Health (FDH), in collaboration with the Governor’s office, would end “every last” vaccine mandates for schoolchildren under Florida law.

“Each last is false and flows with disdain and slavery,” said Ladapo. “Who am I, as a government or someone else, to tell you what you should put in your body? I don’t have good. Your body is a gift from God.”

Desantis stressed that informed consent is essential, declaring that “the information provided to individuals, where they can then make an informed decision, should be the basis of our health and medicine operation”.

According to the FDH, eight vaccinations are currently necessary for children who frequent childcare, preschool schools and kindergarten in kindergarten in the 12th year.

Fox News’ main medical analyst, Dr. Marc Siegel, Fox News Digital told that mandates do not work for some vaccines – especially when a virus or other pathogens spread despite vaccination.

“For vaccines that prevent transmission, as with measles, mumps, rubella, chickenpox or polio-and where the virus itself carries the possibilities of serious results-then school mandates have a meaning, because these viruses spread among schoolchildren,” he said.

In the example of measles, Siegel said: “The only way to reach the immunity of the herd is by vaccination, where propagation is stopped”.

He added: “Those who cannot get this vaccine because they are immunocompromised (if it is a vaccine against the living virus, they cannot have it) are protected by those around them.”

The creation of an immunity community around very contagious viruses thanks to the use of vaccines is “responsible public health”, added Siegel.

While Florida would be the first to implement a prohibition of vaccines on a state scale, other states have proposed or adopted similar legislation.

During the 2024-2025 school season, vaccinations among the planters decreased for all vaccines reported to the previous year, according to the centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Vaccine exemptions from one or more vaccines among children’s gardens increased to 3.6% against 3.3%.

Dr. Susan Kressly, president of the American Academy of Pediatrics, stressed the importance of infant vaccines in a statement. “We are concerned about the fact that today’s announcement by Governor Desantis will put children in Florida public schools at a higher risk of getting sick and will have training effects in their community,” said Kressly.

All those who have questions about vaccinations should consult their doctor.
