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
@9P3JF4M3mos3MO
I don’t trust the government’s decisions and pressure propoganda anymore after seeing kids affected by the covid vaccines.
@9GLC35H 11mos11MO
No it should be the parents choice but full disclosure of what is in the vaccines and how important they are should be provided. So parents are fully informed
@9PJ8ZYL3mos3MO
More science backed (in basic level English) information should be published to heavily show the benefits for and the risks against. Shouldn't be mandatory
@9PJ2C683mos3MO
It should be the parents choice and if the child is an older child in high school they can also have an input on the choice after being educated
@9PFF35X3mos3MO
Yes, but offer three separate vaccines for MMR and allow parents to vaccinate at separate time to other courses
@9PDZ2DS3mos3MO
Yes, but only for deadly and harmful diseases, and only if the vaccinations have been tested for a long period of time and are deemed safe for use with little to no effect on future health.
@9PBNR4P3mos3MO
Complicated. Vaccines are great, unless someone's genetic makeup makes them have adverse side effects.
@9P6W2763mos3MO
No, there are too many "vaccines" around these days. Investigations into the ethics and effectiveness of them needs to be done as well as side effects.
@9P66J723mos3MO
It should always be the choice of the parent. Individual circumstances should be thought about but public ad campaigns should be funded.
@9M65LBK4mos4MO
I'm personally in favour of vaccines, but in the case of COVID-19, they clearly don't stop the spread of the disease.
@9NR87TB3mos3MO
No, parents should be given enough information to make their own decisions as to what vaccines are put into their children's bodies.
@9N2VYFNLiberal Democrat4mos4MO
No, the government should not be able to force you to take medication, fund public ad campaigns about the risks and benefits.
@98WGSLZ2yrs2Y
@95WWRBQ2yrs2Y
No but they should encourage it
@9NWQMPF3mos3MO
Yes, except for cases in which it would be medically unsafe (for example, for immunocompromised children who cannot safely receive certain vaccines)
@9LXJML25mos5MO
No, we have free will although not vaccinating is a terrible idea unless you know you’re allergic to it
@8TCQ9D93yrs3Y
No, let it be a parents choice wether their child has any form of vaccination
@8STQ4SS3yrs3Y
@8PXQ4RD4yrs4Y
It should be illegal to not vaccinate your child unless there are extenuating medical circumstances
@8NRYFLFLiberal Democrat4yrs4Y
If you refuse to vaccinate your kids then you must take them out of the public schooling system
@8YQYF45Conservative3yrs3Y
Vaccines should never me made mandatory under any circumstances. We need more information on the pros and cons of vaccines and other medicines so parents can make their own fair and just opinion.
@9SMFZ353wks3W
it should be recommended but not required, the children's next of kin should be responsible to make their decision based on their beliefs and what they think is best for their child. nobody should be forced but it should be recommended.
It should be very very strongly encouraged but with the exemption of medical reasons and religious reasons
@9QHWPGS2mos2MO
No vaccines should be made available for those who chose to use them, but not mandatory let the parents decide for there own child what is best.
@9QHQTWS2mos2MO
No! The state has no business in the privacy of people's medical decisions. Especially when they're paid to promote the medical products.
@9QGRKX62mos2MO
No but where non-vaccination results in the need for NHS care, the parent(s) should be financially liable for the cost.
@9QFZRHF2mos2MO
Depends if the pharma companies can be made to be honest about the side effects and made to provide clinical trial data to the public that has not been altered.
@9QDWVZR2mos2MO
No not by law but should encourage as many as possible through education & ad campaigns of benefits and risks, allow exceptions based on beliefs
@9QDKY252mos2MO
No, and both make parents criminally responsible for spreading both deadly and less serious diseases, and also allow children to make their own decisions from high school age, and also require vaccinations for deadly diseases to attend any school / group
Yes. But only some that have been tested for years and not whipped up in months like the covid vaccine
@9QDFF5S2mos2MO
Yes so those who cannot be vaccinated for legitimate medical reasons or age will have some degree of protection.
@9QCG7MK2mos2MO
No. Absolutely no way anyone can force any treatment on anyone, but deliver a strong for and against agument with penalties for proven transmission after a refusal for vaccine
@9QC7YGR2mos2MO
No, it should be a personal choice, but I think to go to school you should have one. Have to have one.
It depends on a range of different factors such as religion, chance of having deadly effects of others and the child.
Yes, but only for deadly contagious diseases and those who can not be vaccinated should be quarantined until they are no longer containous. For non-deadly diseases fund public ad campaigns about the risks and benefits instead
@9Q8PMB82mos2MO
No, but if the fall ill - the NHS should not be obliged to pay for ongoing care or support after A&E
@9Q8GKV62mos2MO
Up to the parents. What ever fits best and or the individual to make up their own mind if it comes to it
@9Q87DXD2mos2MO
Every parent should have the right to decide what happens to their own child but if there’s an out break have a better safe system in place
@9Q83PJ82mos2MO
No, fund greater education on vaccination, and attempt to combat disinformation, required for work in the health and education sectors.
@9Q7PQZY2mos2MO
Yes but there should be enough research conducted on each vaccination to ensure it is safe and little to no side effects
@9Q6Y53Z2mos2MO
No, but allow parents the right to choose. Information should be non bias and all side effects be known
@9Q64SN92mos2MO
No, it is the decision of the parents, however, Covid so-called vaccines (they aren't vaccines) should be recalled and governments charged with crimes against humanity following the scamdemic
Depending on the vaccine and how long it has been studied for - New vaccines should NOT be compulsory
@9Q5V25P2mos2MO
Yes, unless there is a medical reason, backed by 2 doctors, that doing so would be a risk to the child.
@9Q5JW562mos2MO
Increase education around vaccines, the risks of not having vaccines, require vaccines for deadly diseases
Yes, but independent ad campaigns should be promoted to identify risks and benefits and to ease people’s concerns. This should not be associated with any pharmaceutical company or government office.
Yes, but not for coronavirus
@9D3VLTN1yr1Y
Yes, only if these vaccines are 100% safe
@97Y2HHK2yrs2Y
Yes, unless there is a valid reason not to
