Buzzfeed Asked All Of The 2020 Presidential Candidates Their Thoughts On Vaccines

Measles, an extremely contagious and potentially dangerous disease, continues to spread in the US, with more than 700 cases so far this year in outbreaks that public health officials say are driven by communities refusing vaccines based on misinformation and conspiracies.

Lawmakers in several states are considering who should be exempt from vaccine mandates: Should religious or personal belief exemptions be allowed in addition to medical ones?

With this in mind, BuzzFeed News asked each 2020 presidential candidate to lay out their stance on vaccines.
