California parents increasingly skip vaccines for kindergarteners, doubling exemption rates over seven years and fueling measles and whooping cough risks. Private schools show the sharpest rise with nearly 1 in 4 reports of at least 8 percent exemptions. public schools also double, now 11 percent. Variations by district and income show higher exemptions in affluent coastal areas, with cases cited across Los Angeles, Santa Monica, Capistrano, and Santa Ana districts.
