It’s worth reading the specifics of the law. They define a child as 2 months to 18 years old. They specify that any child must have a range of shots as outlined by US Public Health Service and is approved. Those first shots, which they now want to include Covid, are not tied to school attendance, as many are administered when the kids are younger. It later says that if your child is not vaccinated and tries to attend school the health commissioner’s office will get involved. In NYS, if you, for example, do not perform a Lead test on your child at age 2, you will get a call from the DoH. Even if, for example, the test kits are not available and they are aware of it.

So basically, what this dumpster fire bill is teeing up is that the state will add this to the list of “required” vaccines for kids, not necessarily those of school age. They can harass you as they see fit. I’m sure this eventually sets up making arguments that you are unfit to be a parent.

Let’s go NYS. I mean Brandon. Let’s Go Brandon.
