West Virginia Gov. Patrick Morrisey announced the state will change its policy of not allowing religious or conscientious exemptions to vaccines.
“We’re going to be implementing the Equal Protection for Religion Act and we’re ensuring that the current policy, which does not recognize a religious and conscientious exemption for vaccines, that is being changed,” Morrisey said.
“We are directing the Office of Public Health to set up a process to recognize these differences,” he continued.

“We believe that the Equal Protection for Religion Act strongly argues in favor of religious and conscientious exemptions. West Virginia right now is an outlier. There are only several states that don’t recognize religious exemption. Today that changes,” he added.
