POLL: Nearly eight out of 10 Americans believe vaccines should be required

(CNN) -- A new poll suggests parents should be required to vaccinate their kids.

The CNN/ORC poll reveals nearly eight out of 10 Americans believe vaccines should be required for healthy children.

Most poll-takers said children should be barred from daycare or public school unless they are vaccinated.

The vaccine debate has heated up following a measles outbreak that began at Disneyland.

The CDC says 154 measles cases have been reported in 17 states and in Washington, D.C. this year.
