The NY State Assembly terminated religious exemptions to vaccinations, following the serious outbreak of measles, including - but not limited to - ultra-Orthodox clans:

New York eliminated the religious exemption to vaccine requirements for schoolchildren, Thursday, as the nation’s worst measles outbreak in decades prompts states to reconsider giving parents ways to opt out of immunization rules.

The Democrat-led Senate and State Assembly voted Thursday to repeal the exemption, which allows parents to cite religious beliefs to forego getting their child the vaccines required for school enrollment.

The majority of cases are from outbreaks in Orthodox Jewish communities in New York.

Some could argue the Democrats were finally forced to quit pandering to a segment of society you can be sure whose votes they wanted. There are, however, a few matters in this report worth taking issue with as far as Democrats are concerned:

The issue is hotly contested and debate around it has often been emotional, pitting cries that religious freedom is being curtailed against warnings that public health is being endangered. After the vote in the Assembly, many of those watching from the gallery erupted in cries of “Shame!” One woman yelled obscenities to the lawmakers seated below.

The debate has only intensified with this year’s measles outbreak, which federal officials have said has recently surpassed 1,000 cases, the highest in 27 years.

“I’m not aware of anything in the Torah, the Bible, the Koran or anything else that suggests you should not get vaccinated,” said Bronx Democrat Jeffrey Dinowitz, the bill’s Assembly sponsor. “If you choose to not vaccinate your child, therefore potentially endangering other children … then you’re the one choosing not to send your children to school.”

But is he ignorant of the jihad themes in the Koran? Honestly, if he won't acknowledge that, he's really not qualified to cite the Koran, when it still remains a major atrocity in influence. And then, there's this to consider:

“I’m old enough to have been around when polio was a real threat,” said Assemblywoman Deborah Glick, a Democrat representing the city of Manhattan. “I believe in science …. Your personal opinions, which may be based on junk science, do not trump the greater good.”

If she really believes in science, does she recognize that transgender ideology is built on only so much phoniness? If not, what's the use of arguing against junk science?

Anyway, shame on the Haredi communities in Rockland County who led to the headlines by not keeping their children healthy. It surely stems from the same mindset that believes one must dress "modestly" even at the expense of vitamin D, and risking osteoporosis as a result. An utter embarrassment.
