Rickets Making A Comeback In The Uk, Doctors Say

Health Officers Group Voices Concern Over Vaccine Exemption Form

California law: Health workers must sign for kids to skip vaccines

Jerry Brown in 2012, sought to limit the number of people who chose against vaccinating their children by requiring such parents to speak with a medical provider first.
