California will no longer require children to get a COVID-19 vaccine to attend school, state public health officials said Friday, Newsmax reports.

“[The California Department of Public Health] is not currently exploring emergency rulemaking to add COVID-19 to the list of required school vaccinations, but we continue to strongly recommend COVID-19 immunization for students and staff to keep everyone safer in the classroom,” the agency said in a statement. “Any changes to required K-12 immunizations are properly addressed through the legislative process.”

Gov. Gavin Newsom, D-Calif., decreed the policy in 2021 under the agency’s recommendation for a mandate, indicating it would eventually apply to all 6.7 million schoolchildren in the state.

The majority of the state’s restrictions have ended. And Newsom will not be able to issue any new ones after Feb. 28, when California’s COVID-19 emergency declaration officially ends.

  1. Matzav secretary: It looks like the level of comments has declined over the past few days. What are we going to do?
    Matzav editor: We will have to put in a headline that contains the words “Covid”, “vaccine” and “government”. Headlines that contain these words always generate lots of comments.
