The Council of State ruled that the constitutional public purpose of providing that the state take care of public health allows children to be expelled from nurseries and kindergartens, in case the parents refuse to vaccinate them.
In particular, four children from an equal number of municipal kindergartens were expelled from the East Macedonia municipality as, despite warnings to their parents, they refused to vaccinate them against known childhood diseases.

The CS rejected as unfounded all the allegations of the parents and considered constitutional and legal the decision of the municipality to expel the minor from the nursery, emphasizing that “it would be contrary to the principle of equality not to vaccinate a person, alleging that, if he lives in a safe environment because other people in their environment have been vaccinated ”.
