Florida is planning to end all vaccination requirements in the state, including requirements for school children to get routine childhood vaccinations that protect them and their communities from severe and life-threatening diseases, such as Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib), pertussis (whooping cough), diphtheria, measles, tetanus, RSV, and polio.

Remember how in 2020 those comservative dipshits were being racist af calling covid the "China virus",

Well now we can call this the florida virus, and since "floridan" isn't also an ethnicity, its fine to say that.
