Buttigieg walks back stance on vaccine exemptions

2020 Democratic candidate Pete Buttigieg backtracked after his campaign said he supported “some” exemptions to mandatory vaccines.

“The law of the land for more than a century has been that states may enforce mandatory vaccination for public safety to prevent the spread of a dangerous disease. Pete does support some exceptions, except during a public health emergency to prevent an outbreak,” a representative for Buttigieg told BuzzFeed News.
