Florida is right to end school vaccine mandates. Kids should fistfight measles. Opinion [View all]

Rex Huppke, USA TODAY

Florida officials plan to do away with all vaccine mandates for children, and as a self-proclaimed health expert who has read many things on the internet, I couldn’t be happier.

For far too long, Americans have been forced to follow “proven medical science” and “basic public health policies” and “common sense.” But not anymore, at least not in the free state of Florida.

The state’s surgeon general, Dr. Joseph Ladapo, stood alongside Gov. Ron DeSantis recently and – inspired by Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who also reads things on the internet – said the plan is to do away with all rules that require children to be vaccinated.

“Who am I to tell you what your child should put in their body?” said Ladapo, a vaccine critic whom I trust because a majority of the medical community thinks he’s a nut. “Your body is a gift from God.”
