Stephen Gruber-Miller reports:
Currently, Iowa students are required to be vaccinated for diphtheria, pertussis (whooping cough), tetanus, polio, measles, rubella and varicella (chickenpox), or to claim an exemption for religious or medical reasons.

Rep. Zach Dieken, R-Granville, who authored the bill, said he doesn't believe education should be connected to vaccines
