Florida Republicans are rejecting a plan to weaken childhood immunization requirements

“All of them, all of them, all of them, every last one of them,” said Ladapo. “Every last one of them is wrong and drips with abuse and slavery.”

But eliminating some jobs would require legislative changes, and so far, support for such changes has not been forthcoming—or popular. In October, a University of North Florida study found this 63 percent of Floridians oppose ending vaccinations. This includes 48 percent who were strongly opposed.

On television, DeSantis responded to the House’s rejection by calling it “politically motivated.”

Ladapo also answered that: “The governor’s initiatives to protect freedoms, whether against medical tyranny or tech oligarchs, are what Floridians and Americans everywhere want and appreciate. Members of the Florida House must lead that effort, not stand in the way.”

According to the Times, Ladapo is still working with the state’s health department to eliminate the vaccine’s mandate against: varicella (chickenpox); hepatitis B; pneumococcal bacteria; and Hemophilus influenzae type B, or Hib, a bacteria that can kill. Vaccination requirements for measles, mumps, rubella, pertussis (whooping cough), diphtheria, and polio may require legislative changes.
