The Vaccination rate in the UK has declined significantly since the MMR-autism controversy began in 1998. The vaccination rate has decreased to 80% from 92% in 1997. In 1998, there were 56 measles cases in the UK. In 2008, there were 1348 cases, with two confirmed deaths.
Yes, and fine parents who refuse to vaccinate their children
@9LK8P654 days4D
It should be advised and if they become ill and refuse the vaccine they should not be insured for healthcare
@9LK6Y634 days4D
Yes, as long as all risks of side effects are minimal and disclosed. Exemption should be allowed for those who may be affected by family medical history or existing health conditions.
@9LFPJP41wk1W
No, but require vaccination in order to attend a public school unless a medical professional states the child should be exempt.
@96NWBF91yr1Y
The decision lays woth the parent
@96NKJRP1yr1Y
No, but make parents liable for medical bills for treatment. Exception is if child has been medically certified as unfit to have the vaccine due to allergies, existing medical conditions etc
@96NJGNK1yr1Y
If the vaccine has been tested and is safe
@96N6CX5Conservative1yr1Y
Parents should be held accountable as well as the medical profession who trial these vaccinations. The choice should be with the parents.
yes but if parents refuse they should be at fault for manslaughter like crime if they are ill of the certain disease
@9595WK2Liberal Democrat2yrs2Y
yes, if the vaccines are tested and granted safe
@9573KQD2yrs2Y
Stop forcing medical experiments on the people, how do you sleep at night
@955293J2yrs2Y
Yes, but it should be in certain age which they are safe to do so and not affect their future
@9543SDF2yrs2Y
The lack of people being vaccinated is allowing diseases once under control to resurge. I think everyone should be vaccinated, but not forced to do so.
Yes, but with exceptions for those for whom a vaccine would be medically risky as certified by medical professionals
@94R5W232yrs2Y
They shouldn’t be forced too but should feel some consequences for doing so.
@93WYXQZ2yrs2Y
Yes for deadly disease and make it mandatory for public schools. Hold parents responsible if their child isn’t vaccinated and causes an outbreak.
@93WSVZV2yrs2Y
I think it should be but i dont feel right about forcing people or trust what may happen with the future
@ananyarroy2yrs2Y
No but fund public health campaigns instead AND hold parents accountable
@93WNHXK2yrs2Y
Yes, as long as the child does not have a health condition that could potentially compromise their wellbeing if they receive the vaccine.
@93WM8B62yrs2Y
you should have a choice
Yes, however exceptions should be allowed on certain occasions
@93VW6PX2yrs2Y
Only if sufficient research has been done
@93VSSD42yrs2Y
Only for proven vaccines AFTER FULL TRIAL PERIOD
Yes, but only for WHO tested and approved vaccinations
@93V7YYR2yrs2Y
Yes, but with exceptions for those with medical conditions that would make it dangerous to be vaccinated
@93TRW6T2yrs2Y
Yes, unless it poses a risk to the person recieving the vaccine
@93TLXTG2yrs2Y
It would be recommended in many different ways to parents but it is up to the parents if they want their children to be vaccinated. But they will be advised too
@93THJ6V2yrs2Y
yes , but with parental consent
@93SK6VVWomen's Equality2yrs2Y
Yes, if the child is under 10 and unable to make their own decision. It’s up to the child if above 10 years of age
@93S3HR92yrs2Y
@93S23JL2yrs2Y
No only if their parents are on board with them getting vaccinated
@93RTVZ82yrs2Y
Yes but exceptions to religious beliefs and certain medical conditions
@93RN7B22yrs2Y
This is personal choice of the parent. The government should have 0 say.
@93RLLFF2yrs2Y
No. However, I agree that all people should be vaccinated. But, again, I'm an anarchist. Agreeign to governmental control of people is against such a view
@93RLCYMLibertarian2yrs2Y
Take government out of this
@93R47PF2yrs2Y
Children should be vaccined with consent/choice, but there isn't enough research for Covid vaccine as yet to be offered to all developing children.
@93QFSC72yrs2Y
@93Q6DYD2yrs2Y
Vaccinations should be a choice, as religion may play a factor with this.
if the parents want them to have the vaccine or if its deadly!
@93MLGVK2yrs2Y
no unless they are deadly
Yes unless medically (as actually confirmed by professionals) exempt
@93HM2CZ2yrs2Y
No, but children and people in general should have to isolate until the illness dies out to prevent the spread.
@93G735D2yrs2Y
Yes, but only diseases that can harm children and, for children under 18, with a parent or guardian's permission.
@93G6ZT42yrs2Y
it should be the parents decision weather the child should
@93F3CC52yrs2Y
Yes, children should be vaccinated but only at a certain age
@93DGF9Q2yrs2Y
No the government shouldn't have any power over our body's
@93D6FRZ2yrs2Y
Yes, but to parents agreement
@939ZYRQ2yrs2Y
I do not believe in unimportant mandates.
@9398J5L2yrs2Y
Vaccines should not be forced on anyone, and suitability may vary on a case by case basis
