As far as kids not being vax, I thought I heard California includes it in its directive to going to school as with other childhood vaccines. Meaning, a child cannot attend a public school unless they get vaccinated.
The big issue is that many states let students into schools WITHOUT vaccines if they have "religious exemptions" ... meaning parents who are opposed to vaccinations and sign paperwork which states they do not believe in vaccinations, be it because of religious or ideological beliefs or even just beliefs against vaccinations for non-religious beliefs. It's not the same thing but states let it slide as if it is ... if you don't have the rubella or polio vaccine, you can (in most states) go anyway to public school if you have "religious" objections to the vaccine.
