After reports of actress Jessica Biel joining Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to lobby against a California state pro-vaccine bill surfaced, Biel took to Instagram on Thursday to clear the air.”I am not against vaccinations. I support children getting vaccinations and I also support families having the right to make educated medical decisions for their children alongside their physicians,” she wrote.
“My dearest friends have a child with a medical condition that warrants an exemption from vaccinations, and should this bill pass, it would greatly affect their family’s ability to care for their child in this state,” she added.
The bill has received criticism by anti-vaccination advocates like Kennedy. Once passed, the bill would decrease the medical exemptions from vaccines that don’t have approval from state public health officers. (ANI)
