A judge has ruled on behalf of several dozen parents who challenged Rockland County’s emergency order banning children from public places unless they’ve been vaccinated against measles.

The 30-day order enacted on March 26 banned unvaccinated people under 18 years old from gathering places including schools, stores, churches and public transportation.
