When an 18-year old decided to get vaccinated, against his parents' wishes, his story went viral. And it sparked questions beyond his family: What does the law say for younger children whose parents won't get them vaccinated? What rights do they have? What exemptions are appropriate, and which are not?
Our guests explore the current national conversation on vaccines, particularly as it relates to rights and exemptions. In studio:
