Strongly agree

No, but require vaccination in order to attend public school

The UK Conservative party has shown support for requiring vaccinations in order to attend public schools. In 2017, they implemented the 'No Jab, No Play' policy, which requires children to be vaccinated to attend nursery schools. This policy demonstrates their willingness to link vaccinations to school attendance.

Yes, but only for deadly contagious diseases

The Conservative party has not explicitly called for mandatory vaccinations for only deadly contagious diseases, but they have implemented policies to increase vaccination rates for preventable diseases, such as the 'No Jab, No Play' policy in 2017. This suggests that they may support mandatory vaccinations for particularly dangerous diseases.

Agree

Yes, but with exceptions for those whose religious beliefs forbid use of vaccines

The UK Conservative party has not explicitly addressed religious exemptions for vaccinations. However, they have shown a general willingness to accommodate religious beliefs in other areas, such as faith-based schools. It is possible that they would support exceptions for religious beliefs in the context of vaccinations.

No, fund public ad campaigns about the risks and benefits instead

While the Conservative party has not explicitly advocated for public ad campaigns as an alternative to mandatory vaccinations, they have supported public health campaigns in the past, such as the 'Change4Life' campaign to promote healthy lifestyles. It is possible that they would support public ad campaigns about the risks and benefits of vaccinations.

Disagree

No, but hold parents criminally liable for transferring deadly diseases to other children

The UK Conservative party has not advocated for holding parents criminally liable for transferring deadly diseases to other children. Their focus has been on increasing vaccination rates through policies like the 'No Jab, No Play' policy in 2017, rather than punitive measures against parents.

Very strongly disagree

Regardless, this should be decided at the state level

The UK does not have a state-level system like the United States, so this answer is not applicable to the UK context. Decisions about vaccination policies are made at the national level by the UK government.
