The governor of Ohio on Thursday opposed a controversial bill that seeks to weaken vaccination laws in the state, according to reports. Gov. Mike DeWine, a Republican, said he is antagonistic about House Bill 248 while asking Ohioans to contemplate the impact COVID-19 vaccines have had on society so far, The Columbus Dispatch reported.
“Before modern medicine, diseases such as mumps, polio, whooping cough were common and caused great, great, great suffering and death to thousands of people every single year,” DeWine said during a news briefing announcing the latest winners for the state’s Vax-a-Million lottery.
The bill would block employers from mandating vaccinations as a condition of employment and allow state residents to skip any vaccination by making a written or verbal declaration. It would also prohibit unvaccinated people to be forced to wear a face mask and block health departments, schools, or other government agencies from mandating participation in a vaccine registry.
