Chris Christie supports a "balanced" approach to vaccination

BALANCE!!! IN HEALTH POLICY111!?!

If they had the power, I'm convinced this forum would be putting parents in jail for not giving 4 year olds their monthly mammograms.

Well this already is a states issue. The Federal government doesn't have any vaccine requirements. The FDA regulates it, but this is a state issue.

Every state, even MS, requires vaccines:

as does Rand Paul's KY:

Most of these laws were written decades ago. Are we actually going to see some GOPers suggest the Federal Gov should get involved, or even that some of these states should repeal these laws?

Yes, every state requires some vaccines for daycare/school. The question is which vaccines, and with what kind of exemptions. That varies widely.

People are not just talking about measles vaccines. Political figures are being asked and are making comments of vaccines in general, and all the different issues that go along with that. We don't live in a compartmentalized media environment.

This is the comment that got so much of this forum upset in the first place:

The issue du jour is the measles and Christie's amateurish pandering is what kicked up the stir and why he had to quickly clarify his remarks, as noted by the WaPo:

Not really sure what you are arguing. He was asked about measles

What was the question he was asked?  All I see quoted anywhere is his response, in which he clearly is not talking specifically about measles.  It's silly to criticize someone for pandering without paying any attention to what they actually said.

He was asked "do you think Americans should vaccinate your kids? Is the measles vaccine safe?"

perhaps you have a link for your quotation (odd wording and all)?
