The Religious Leaders Caught in the Vaccine Wars

Religious texts such as the Bible, the Torah, and the Quran don't say anything about vaccines -- of course, all three texts predate them by hundreds of years. So when faith leaders face questions about immunizations, they generally offer their own interpretations of the scriptures. Such questions, particularly about the applicability of religious exemptions, have become more urgent during the pandemic, forcing clergy to take hard stances for or against excusals.
