Yes, and fine parents who refuse to vaccinate their children
@9P6W2765mos5MO
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.
@9P66J725mos5MO
It should always be the choice of the parent. Individual circumstances should be thought about but public ad campaigns should be funded.
@9P3JF4M5mos5MO
I don’t trust the government’s decisions and pressure propoganda anymore after seeing kids affected by the covid vaccines.
@9M65LBK7mos7MO
I'm personally in favour of vaccines, but in the case of COVID-19, they clearly don't stop the spread of the disease.
@9GLC35H 1yr1Y
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
@9PJ8ZYL5mos5MO
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
@9PJ2C685mos5MO
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
