      I'm sure @LorenaSGonzalez will garner the respect of any colleague who admires her ability to steadfastly ignore the voices of fringe antivax cranks, no matter how obnoxiou the protest or loud the chants.

      I was using "voices" as a bit of a synecdoche for the months of sustained campaigning, lobbying and attempts to call out the (hopefully unintended) obvious harmful consequences of the bill if it were to be passed. Apparently, she has zero concern for families of injured kids.

      Zero concern for imaginary threats is appropriate risk assessment.

      Correct. Also correct is the statement that #SB276 will not stop the issuance of scientifically legitimate medical exemptions to school vaccine mandates.

          That statement might accidentally be true if only because most pediatric offices are already stopping issuing them as a blanket policy due to the political climate around this issue and perceived threats to medical licenses etc. SB276 will ensure these reactive policies ossify.
