Answer to Question 1

The difficulty with this situation is that it puts other children at more risk. A child who is exempt from following the schedule for measles, mumps, and rubella vaccination is 35 times more likely to have measles and spread them than is a vaccinated child. This makes the early childhood education environment much more vulnerable than it would be without that child present.

Answer to Question 2

Health policies are critical because they help to optimize health and minimize risk. They also help the teacher to manage the environment and protect children. (The rest of the answer would be individual and each policy selected should have its purpose explained.)
