Florida's surgeon general plans to remove vaccine mandates without scientific study, amid a decline to 90% kindergarten immunization rates, raising public health concerns.

- Polls show that 82% of Florida parents support vaccine mandates for public schools, contrasting with Ladapo's position that emphasizes parental rights over vaccination.
