The Constitutional Court on
Wednesday rejected the Veneto regional government's appeal
against compulsory vaccinations for school admissions, saying
the issues in question were the business of the national
legislator.
In its ruling, the top court said making vaccinations
compulsory was justified by the fall in the numbers of children
that have been vaccinated.
The government has made 10 vaccinations compulsory for school
admission.
Several parents across Italy have seen their children refused
admission because they have not had the necessary vaccinations.
There have been public protests against the government move.
