Ban on unvaccinated kids in schools 'needs new law'

(ANSA) - Rome, November 5 - The Conference of Regions said Thursday a proposed plan to ban unvaccinated children from enrolling in school should be regulated via "updated norms".
    This means lawmakers might have to come up with ad hoc legislation on the matter. The Conference earlier approved the government's 2016-2018 National Vaccination Plan, which contains the proposed measure on schools. Public health officials have raised the alarm about falling vaccination rates in Italy.
