CHARLESTON, W.Va., March 14, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- A bill seeking to exempt virtual public school students in West Virginia from vaccine mandates and allowing private/parochial schools to set their own policies has successfully navigated both chambers and currently awaits the Governor's signature. HB 5105 as passed by the House of Delegates in a 70-29 vote, originally featured an amendment introducing a religious exemption for all public and private school students. This amendment was removed during the Senate Health Committee's deliberations and a simplified version of the bill secured Senate approval with a vote of 20 to 12 on Saturday, March 8.

Key Points:

West Virginia's HB 5105 does not provide a religious exemption but will more closely align WV with the majority of states.
Forty-five other states offer religious and/or philosophical exemptions to vaccine mandates and 44 states allow physicians to exempt children for medical reasons.
West Virginia sits at the bottom of all states in its vaccine exemption rate; only New York has a comparably low rate.
Despite having the most stringent vaccine laws in the nation, West Virginia health statistics for children are among the worst.
