"It is official. New York Assembly Bill A 10942, the "worst vaccine bill ever" and the mandatory meningococcal vaccine bill it morphed into late in the session are dead. And they were killed by parents who just aren't going to let pharma kick them around anymore."

Well, it looks like New Yorkers have successfully defended their freedoms on the issue of vaccination. So, for now the parents of New York will be able to keep the choice of whether or not to administer the meningitis vaccine to their children and not have the state force it on their kids without their consent, Soviet Union-style.
Although many other vaccines in New York are still mandatory, including the sexually transmitted Hepatitis B, and that leaves more battles to be fought in the future.

we must never stop ever

This is a good example of the legislative process working well. The bill was defeated. I'm becoming more and more convinced that WE should, let's say the bill went through, just attack any one that supported it. People, you know:"Oh! my brakes failed" and this Senator was crushed or 'how did the glass and staples get into the Assemblyman's food, gee! I don't know'. As James said: We must never stop ever'
