I would have liked a yes, probably option but voted yes anyway.

Yes. This question is bound to bring out the usual suspects who regularly, despite all the evidence, try to spread false information. To eliminate some diseases altogether requires that over 90% of the population has get vaccinated, known as 'herd immunity'. The black propaganda on the safety of vaccines, put out by a very small number of people,aided and abetted by the British tabloid media, is putting the health of the rest of us at risk.

Yes, though perhaps they should be done more staggered or on babies slightly older? This is not a reflection on the vaccines but rather on the somewhat under-developed immune system of a very young baby.

There are reports of a 'massive' rise of measles in Wales because people did not bother with the vaccine. This should be a lesson to us all to vaccinate.

The older vaccines had more antigens in them. This is why we can now give 6-in-1 vaccines to children safely...there are a lot less antigens in the new vaccines. It is the number of antigens (molecules) that challenges the immune system, not the number of jabs or vaccines.
Parents can be very stubborn and pompous in their fixed delusions regarding vaccines being unsafe for their children. I think that any child that has not been vaccinated should not be allowed to attend school.
