Christie: We vaccinate our kids, but it’s parent choice

“I also understand that parents need to have some measure of choice as well. So that’s a balance the government has to decide,” Christie added.

Asked whether he was advocating leaving parents the option to not vaccinate their kids, Christie said “I didn’t say I’m leaving people the option,” but that “it depends what the vaccine is, what the disease type is and all the rest.”

Christie’s careful hedge on the issue suggests he’s wary of offering his potential presidential opponents ammunition for another such fight in the future.
