Vaccination Exemptions Vary By State | Passport Health

Check out this awesome map of vaccination exemptions by state presented by Nursing@Simmons. Schedule your vaccination appointment today at Passport Health.

What Types Of Exemptions Are There?
Although they vary among states, vaccination exemptions are provided for medical, religious, and philosophical reasons.

Medical exemption: An MD or doctor of osteopathy (DO) typically is required to write a medical exemption, but, in some states, other types of health care workers are able to certify that one is needed.

Religious exemption: This exemption is based on First Amendment rights for religious freedom, but can be withdrawn if the state can provide a compelling reason for requiring vaccination.

Philosophical, conscientious, or personal belief exemption: This is a blanket exemption, and must include all vaccines. In some states, collaboration with a healthcare professional is required—as well as the completion of a vaccine education program.

How can you tell when someone doesn't know what they are talking about? Most of the time they avoid using sources for fact checking.

A common myth is schools required vaccinations for kids to go to school: The truth is the opposite:

Fauci admits Rand Paul was right about him | Washington Examiner

Dr. Anthony Fauci and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have been making up the rules as they go, with no regard for the scientific data they claim to respect.

“I didn’t want to look like I was giving mixed signals,” Fauci said when asked why he has still been wearing masks in public settings despite being fully inoculated against COVID-19. “But being a fully vaccinated person, the chances of my getting infected in an indoor setting is extremely low.”

Fauci’s desire to wait for the CDC’s new guidance and roll it out at the right time might have been understandable if he hadn’t spent the past year lecturing people who don’t “follow the science.” But clearly, the science hasn’t been driving Fauci’s messaging.

Otherwise, he would have started encouraging vaccinated adults to live their lives again restriction-free as soon as their two-week inoculation period was up. Instead, he did the opposite, spreading doubt about the vaccines’ effectiveness along the way.
