HOUSTON (AP) — A new study has found that four Texas cities are among those in the country with the highest number of kindergartners not getting vaccinated for non-medical reasons.

The Houston Chronicle reports that the study published Tuesday in the Public Library of Science Medicine journal ranks Houston, Austin, Fort Worth and Plano among the 15 metropolitan "hot spots" of vaccine exemptions. Texas has more cities on the list than any other state.
