We’ve written before about the alarming number of state lawmakers who harbor anti-vaccination views. In 2018, dozens of candidates sought and received the endorsement of the largest anti-vaccination group in Ohio, the Ohio Advocates for Medical Freedom. If any of these individuals win in November, it would only increase the grip of this anti-science, anti-public health viewpoint in the Ohio legislature. For the most part, Democrats refused to respond to the group’s urgings to complete their candidate questionnaire. A few did, however, taking the opportunity to make a strong case that vaccines actually work, Brigid Kelly and Mark Fogel among them.
