What are the laws about child immunization in Washington State


What are the laws about child immunization in Washington State?
I cannot seem to find it on the states health site. Can a parent keep their child from getting immunized in Washington for personal, medical, or religious reasons or only medical and religious?

If your child is not in day care, requirements for immunizations are for school aged children. If you plan to not immunize your child, a day care (home or center) can refuse you service. Most of the day care centers in my state appear to do so. According to this link, religious, philosophical or personal reasons can be cause for exemption. http://apps.leg.wa.gov/RCW/default.aspx?cite=28A.210.090
