His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.","avatar":"https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/fc4e2a612b15b67bad0c6f0e1db4ca9b?s=600&d=blank&r=g","twitter":"MarkFiore","facebook":null,"instagram":"https://www.instagram.com/markfiore/?hl=en","linkedin":null,"sites":[{"site":"arts","roles":["contributor"]},{"site":"news","roles":["editor"]},{"site":"futureofyou","roles":["editor"]},{"site":"science","roles":["editor"]}],"headData":{"title":"Mark Fiore | KQED","description":"KQED News Cartoonist","ogImgSrc":"https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/fc4e2a612b15b67bad0c6f0e1db4ca9b?s=600&d=blank&r=g","twImgSrc":"https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/fc4e2a612b15b67bad0c6f0e1db4ca9b?s=600&d=blank&r=g"},"isLoading":false,"link":"/author/markfiore"},"mlagos":{"type":"authors","id":"3239","meta":{"index":"authors_1591205172","id":"3239","found":true},"name":"Marisa Lagos","firstName":"Marisa","lastName":"Lagos","slug":"mlagos","email":"mlagos@kqed.org","display_author_email":false,"staff_mastheads":["news"],"title":"KQED Contributor","bio":"\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Marisa Lagos is a correspondent for KQED’s California Politics and Government Desk and co-hosts a weekly show and podcast, \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Political Breakdown.\u003c/span>\u003c/i> \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At KQED, Lagos conducts reporting, analysis and investigations into state, local and national politics for radio, TV and online.

What does the new law do?\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>In California, children are required to be vaccinated, or have a medical exemption, to attend school. The new \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billCompareClient.xhtml?bill_id=201920200SB276\">law\u003c/a> creates a review process that gives public health officials the final say on those waivers, with the authority to reject them. Reasons for medical exemptions must still follow strict guidelines, and doctors will now be barred from charging any fees for exams or forms related to them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sen. Richard Pan, D-Sacramento, the law’s author, said he was concerned when the number of medical waivers rose across the state after a previous law that he wrote eliminated personal-belief exemptions in 2016 but kept medical exemptions intact. Pan said his goal this year was to keep physicians from issuing waivers for payment or for reasons that are not allowed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The law, signed by the governor last week, \u003ca href=\"https://www.chhs.ca.gov/blog/2019/09/09/senate-bill-276-and-senate-bill-714-vaccinations-and-medical-exemptions-questions-and-answers/\">requires\u003c/a> doctors to examine patients and submit their recommendations to the state Department of Public Health. State officials will then cross-check recommendations against guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control’s Advisory Committee on Immunization \u003ca href=\"https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/hcp/acip-recs/general-recs/contraindications.html\">Practices\u003c/a> or the American Academy of Pediatrics.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Currently, the state is not involved in how students are granted medical exemptions. Parents get them from doctors and submit them to schools, and schools with kindergartens are required to submit aggregate data to the state each autumn. The state does not receive exemption forms or information about doctors writing exemptions, according to the Department of Public Health.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Starting next year, parents will continue to get waiver letters from doctors, as they do now, and submit them to schools. In 2021, the state is set to have a standardized form and a new submission process: Doctors will send exemptions\u003cstrong> \u003c/strong>directly to the state for review and dissemination to schools.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Once the law takes effect in January, state health officials will begin reviewing all medical exemptions at schools in which fewer than 95% of students are vaccinated. They will also review doctors who submit five or more exemptions in one year as well as schools that have not shared vaccination rates with the state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If the state determines a physician is “contributing to a public health risk,” it will report the physician to California’s medical board. The state will cancel waivers written by doctors who are under investigation by the medical board.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It is my hope that parents whose vulnerable children could die from vaccine-preventable diseases will be reassured that we are protecting those communities that have been left vulnerable” by local doctors selling inappropriate exemptions, Pan said in a written statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kids with medical exemptions issued before next Jan. 1 may keep their exemptions until they move into the next grade span. The spans are defined as birth to preschool, kindergarten to sixth grade and seventh to 12th grades. After July 1, 2021, students with temporary exemptions will need to receive a new one each year, and no exemptions will carry over when a child enters a new grade span.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>2. How did we get here?\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Vaccinations have been a hot issue in California for several years, even though nearly 95% of kindergartners were fully vaccinated in the last school year. At the same time, the portion of kindergartners with medical exemptions \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/health/2019/02/california-made-it-hard-to-avoid-vaccinating-kids-medical-waivers-have-tripled-now-what/\">has been rising\u003c/a> since personal-belief exemptions were eliminated. Last year, nearly 1% of kindergartners — 4,812 of them — had exemptions. In some places rates are higher: The legislation notes that 16 counties had kindergarten vaccination rates lower than 90% in the last school year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe src=\"https://e.infogram.com/a5d34577-fae8-4b96-9afe-c8f002f888c1?src=embed\" title=\"Vaccination Rates in California\" width=\"550\" height=\"700\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"border:none;\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pan’s latest proposal drew opposition groups to the capital for weeks of protest, at times all but shutting down meetings and regularly scheduled operations in the Capitol building. Advocates for Physicians’ Rights, Physicians for Informed Consent and parents from across the state testified against the bill in committee hearings, saying their children had been injured by vaccines and that they didn’t want to be required to obtain more immunizations. Some also said their children had autoimmune disorders or similar conditions and many feared the bill would dissuade doctors from providing new exemptions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Anti-vaccination activists reacted similarly in 2015, when Pan first proposed elimination of personal-belief exemptions. At that time, he \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w95QW-kO_yo\">agreed\u003c/a> that a medical exemption is absolutely up to a physician and \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w95QW-kO_yo\">argued\u003c/a> that parents would be able to find a practitioner to sign a form.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And, to the surprise some of the bill’s supporters, Gov. Gavin Newsom also had reservations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Initially, he expressed \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/politics/article/Gavin-Newsom-signals-opposition-to-tightening-13916178.php\">concern\u003c/a> about state involvement in the doctor-patient relationship. But after negotiations with the author and some amendments, Newsom said he would support the proposal. But\u003cstrong> \u003c/strong>as the bill advanced through the Legislature, Newsom \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/CAgovernor/status/1169027421930184705\">signaled\u003c/a> he wanted more changes. Pan agreed again and put them in a companion \u003ca href=\"http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=201920200SB714\">bill\u003c/a>. Newsom signed both bills into law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The changes Newsom asked for allow kids who have medical exemptions before the law goes into effect on Jan. 1 to keep them until they enter a new grade span. Doctors also gained some breathing room in the amended version: Initially, Pan’s proposal said they would sign exemptions under penalty of perjury, but that clause was removed.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>3. The vast majority of kids are vaccinated, so what’s the big deal?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>A state Department of Public Health’s \u003ca href=\"http://eziz.org/assets/docs/shotsforschool/2018-19CAKindergartenSummaryReport.pdf\">review\u003c/a> shows that California’s vaccination rates are high: 94.8% of kindergartners in the last school year were vaccinated, a slight decrease from the year before. Meanwhile, the slight increase in medical exemptions represents families who had previously sought personal-belief exemptions and switched to medical waivers, say parents who oppose the new law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Supporters of the new law, including the California Medical Association and the American Academy of Pediatrics in California, say it will strengthen community immunity and that vaccines are safe and effective for keeping communities healthy. They also content that it will crack down on physicians “practicing outside the accepted standard of care,” said David Aizuss, president of the medical association, in a written statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Doctors who oppose the law say they are concerned about losing their right to say what’s best for their patients, and about the lack of liability for those injured by vaccines, explained Debra Schaefer, spokeswoman \u003ca href=\"https://www.physiciansrights.org/mission/\">for\u003c/a> Advocates for Physicians’ Rights, in an email.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The CDC itself warns that there are risks involved with vaccinations, and where there is risk, there should at least be a discussion between a doctor and a patient, like with any other pharmaceutical,” she said. “This bill is nothing more than government overreach. ... Doctors were scared to write (medical exemptions) before this bill; this is just creating an additional killing effect.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other opponents say the law tries to solve a problem that doesn’t exist. Instead, it may force thousands of children to leave school or quickly get caught up on vaccines even if they have legitimate medical exemptions, said Toby Rogers, an independent researcher and prominent critic of the law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If you are missing a single shot in this bloated schedule, you are considered noncompliant and kicked out of school,” said Rogers, referring to the \u003ca href=\"https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/schedules/hcp/imz/child-adolescent.html\">CDC schedule\u003c/a> of vaccinations for children. In California, kids are required to receive 15-16 vaccine \u003ca href=\"https://www.shotsforschool.org/k-12/\">shots \u003c/a>to enter kindergarten. Some of the shots carry combined doses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rogers suggested the state focus instead on the larger percentage of children affected by such diseases and conditions as diabetes, asthma, autoimmune disorders and autism.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>4. Are vaccines dangerous, as some critics say?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Critics of the new law argue that it does not properly acknowledge the risk that vaccines pose. The law states that “for all but a small number of individuals, immunizations are safe and effective,” but does not elaborate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other opponents say the new requirements ignore the real needs of children who have been injured by vaccines and could be further harmed if forced into more. For example, they could have allergic reactions to vaccine components or have other underlying health conditions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vaccinations also can have \u003ca href=\"https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/vac-gen/side-effects.htm\">side effects\u003c/a>, ranging from fevers and seizures to very rare cases of death, according to the literature included with the medications and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. In 1986, the federal government \u003ca href=\"https://pediatrics.aappublications.org/content/98/6/1179\">created \u003c/a>the National Childhood Vaccine Injury \u003ca href=\"https://www.congress.gov/bill/99th-congress/house-bill/5546\">Act\u003c/a>. that freed pharmaceutical companies from liability in cases of such injury. Under that law, billions of government dollars have been paid to families with children harmed by vaccines.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The group Physicians for Informed Consent, which opposes California’s new law, \u003ca href=\"https://physiciansforinformedconsent.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/PIC-MBC-SB276-7-9-19.pdf\">says \u003c/a>it is partly based on misinformation. The organization argues that some of the vaccines required for school are for illnesses that are not contagious and therefore do not affect herd immunity or other children. Those include immunizations against tetanus and Hepatitis B, which is first administered to newborns for an illness \u003ca href=\"https://www.cdc.gov/hepatitis/hbv/bfaq.htm\">transmitted\u003c/a> through sex and intravenous drug use.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Opponents also point to the Vaccine Adverse Effects \u003ca href=\"https://vaers.hhs.gov/\">Registry\u003c/a> and the National Vaccine Injury Compensation \u003ca href=\"https://www.hrsa.gov/vaccine-compensation/index.html\">Program\u003c/a> as evidence that vaccination decisions should be left to physicians.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>5. So is this fight over now?\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Robert F.

At the same time, the portion of kindergartners with medical exemptions \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/health/2019/02/california-made-it-hard-to-avoid-vaccinating-kids-medical-waivers-have-tripled-now-what/\">has been rising\u003c/a> since personal-belief exemptions were eliminated. Last year, nearly 1% of kindergartners — 4,812 of them — had exemptions. In some places rates are higher: The legislation notes that 16 counties had kindergarten vaccination rates lower than 90% in the last school year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe src=\"https://e.infogram.com/a5d34577-fae8-4b96-9afe-c8f002f888c1?src=embed\" title=\"Vaccination Rates in California\" width=\"550\" height=\"700\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"border:none;\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pan’s latest proposal drew opposition groups to the capital for weeks of protest, at times all but shutting down meetings and regularly scheduled operations in the Capitol building. Advocates for Physicians’ Rights, Physicians for Informed Consent and parents from across the state testified against the bill in committee hearings, saying their children had been injured by vaccines and that they didn’t want to be required to obtain more immunizations. Some also said their children had autoimmune disorders or similar conditions and many feared the bill would dissuade doctors from providing new exemptions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Anti-vaccination activists reacted similarly in 2015, when Pan first proposed elimination of personal-belief exemptions. At that time, he \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w95QW-kO_yo\">agreed\u003c/a> that a medical exemption is absolutely up to a physician and \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w95QW-kO_yo\">argued\u003c/a> that parents would be able to find a practitioner to sign a form.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And, to the surprise some of the bill’s supporters, Gov. Gavin Newsom also had reservations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Initially, he expressed \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/politics/article/Gavin-Newsom-signals-opposition-to-tightening-13916178.php\">concern\u003c/a> about state involvement in the doctor-patient relationship. But after negotiations with the author and some amendments, Newsom said he would support the proposal. But\u003cstrong> \u003c/strong>as the bill advanced through the Legislature, Newsom \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/CAgovernor/status/1169027421930184705\">signaled\u003c/a> he wanted more changes. Pan agreed again and put them in a companion \u003ca href=\"http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=201920200SB714\">bill\u003c/a>. Newsom signed both bills into law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The changes Newsom asked for allow kids who have medical exemptions before the law goes into effect on Jan. 1 to keep them until they enter a new grade span. Doctors also gained some breathing room in the amended version: Initially, Pan’s proposal said they would sign exemptions under penalty of perjury, but that clause was removed.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>3. The vast majority of kids are vaccinated, so what’s the big deal?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>A state Department of Public Health’s \u003ca href=\"http://eziz.org/assets/docs/shotsforschool/2018-19CAKindergartenSummaryReport.pdf\">review\u003c/a> shows that California’s vaccination rates are high: 94.8% of kindergartners in the last school year were vaccinated, a slight decrease from the year before. Meanwhile, the slight increase in medical exemptions represents families who had previously sought personal-belief exemptions and switched to medical waivers, say parents who oppose the new law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Supporters of the new law, including the California Medical Association and the American Academy of Pediatrics in California, say it will strengthen community immunity and that vaccines are safe and effective for keeping communities healthy. They also content that it will crack down on physicians “practicing outside the accepted standard of care,” said David Aizuss, president of the medical association, in a written statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Doctors who oppose the law say they are concerned about losing their right to say what’s best for their patients, and about the lack of liability for those injured by vaccines, explained Debra Schaefer, spokeswoman \u003ca href=\"https://www.physiciansrights.org/mission/\">for\u003c/a> Advocates for Physicians’ Rights, in an email.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The CDC itself warns that there are risks involved with vaccinations, and where there is risk, there should at least be a discussion between a doctor and a patient, like with any other pharmaceutical,” she said. “This bill is nothing more than government overreach. ... Doctors were scared to write (medical exemptions) before this bill; this is just creating an additional killing effect.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other opponents say the law tries to solve a problem that doesn’t exist. Instead, it may force thousands of children to leave school or quickly get caught up on vaccines even if they have legitimate medical exemptions, said Toby Rogers, an independent researcher and prominent critic of the law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If you are missing a single shot in this bloated schedule, you are considered noncompliant and kicked out of school,” said Rogers, referring to the \u003ca href=\"https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/schedules/hcp/imz/child-adolescent.html\">CDC schedule\u003c/a> of vaccinations for children. In California, kids are required to receive 15-16 vaccine \u003ca href=\"https://www.shotsforschool.org/k-12/\">shots \u003c/a>to enter kindergarten. Some of the shots carry combined doses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rogers suggested the state focus instead on the larger percentage of children affected by such diseases and conditions as diabetes, asthma, autoimmune disorders and autism.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>4. Are vaccines dangerous, as some critics say?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Critics of the new law argue that it does not properly acknowledge the risk that vaccines pose. The law states that “for all but a small number of individuals, immunizations are safe and effective,” but does not elaborate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other opponents say the new requirements ignore the real needs of children who have been injured by vaccines and could be further harmed if forced into more. For example, they could have allergic reactions to vaccine components or have other underlying health conditions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vaccinations also can have \u003ca href=\"https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/vac-gen/side-effects.htm\">side effects\u003c/a>, ranging from fevers and seizures to very rare cases of death, according to the literature included with the medications and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. In 1986, the federal government \u003ca href=\"https://pediatrics.aappublications.org/content/98/6/1179\">created \u003c/a>the National Childhood Vaccine Injury \u003ca href=\"https://www.congress.gov/bill/99th-congress/house-bill/5546\">Act\u003c/a>. that freed pharmaceutical companies from liability in cases of such injury. Under that law, billions of government dollars have been paid to families with children harmed by vaccines.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The group Physicians for Informed Consent, which opposes California’s new law, \u003ca href=\"https://physiciansforinformedconsent.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/PIC-MBC-SB276-7-9-19.pdf\">says \u003c/a>it is partly based on misinformation. The organization argues that some of the vaccines required for school are for illnesses that are not contagious and therefore do not affect herd immunity or other children. Those include immunizations against tetanus and Hepatitis B, which is first administered to newborns for an illness \u003ca href=\"https://www.cdc.gov/hepatitis/hbv/bfaq.htm\">transmitted\u003c/a> through sex and intravenous drug use.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Opponents also point to the Vaccine Adverse Effects \u003ca href=\"https://vaers.hhs.gov/\">Registry\u003c/a> and the National Vaccine Injury Compensation \u003ca href=\"https://www.hrsa.gov/vaccine-compensation/index.html\">Program\u003c/a> as evidence that vaccination decisions should be left to physicians.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>5. So is this fight over now?\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a vocal opponent of the California law, said at a rally last week that his \u003ca href=\"https://childrenshealthdefense.org/news/americans-can-handle-an-open-discussion-on-vaccines-rfk-jr-responds-to-criticism-from-his-family/\">organization\u003c/a>, Children’s Health Defense, intends to sue the state to block the law.
