As a former PG County resident:
this happens every year. There are free shot clinics, notices sent out in every language imaginable and info sent on how to opt out of the requirement for religious or medical reasons.
If a parent has gone this long without getting the kid vaccinated, then yes, fine them or lock them up. We have this issue every year and I refuse to believe parents who say they didnt know about this. I also dont buy the argument that they cant afford it. If your child has Medicaid, its included in well baby/child checkups. If your kid doesnt qualify for Medicaid, the County always has shot clinics during the summer, during school, during breaks, etc. I think a lot of it is laziness and or ignorance on the part of the parents.
