Should the government require children to be vaccinated for preventable diseases?

YES. VACCINATE CHILDREN. they already spread common colds and gastro like breeding rabbits. Children die from preventable diseases in underdeveloped countries. if we have access to prevent those diseases, TAKE IT. VACCINATE YOUR KIDS. if you dont, you rkids will just spread it to another persons child.

Yes, but it has been shown that other substances have been introduced, under the guise of vaccines. This has to stop ! People should know what is being injected into their bodies. All medical persons should be charged if there is more in the vaccinations.

Limit vaccinations to what was in place 30 years ago. If they want to add more vaccines to the schedules rigorous trials need to have been conducted and manufacturers can be sued for adverse effects.

Yes, as long at it is free, otherwise families going through financial issues won't be able to afford it

Everyone needs to mind their own business and worry about themselves. If parents make that decision, it’s their decision!!!

Yes, but with exceptions for those whose religious beliefs forbud use of vaccines, but they need to be fullt vaccinated for public school and hold parents criminally liable if they transmit deadly diseases to their children

Vaccinations should be openly discussed with the public prior to any enquiry of receiving them with all relevant information of what the vaccination contains... there are multiple natural resources and elements available to treat such "diseases" without the need of vaccination.

Yes, where the full regimen of testing and trials have been conducted over the fullness of time (average = 20 years).

Yes but for either religious beliefs as mention above or severe medical cases where it would cause harm having exceptions

Yes, for attendance in schools receiving public funding etc, but with exceptions for those with identified risks

Depending on the situation, whether it is religious or a medical condition not allowing you to safely have vaccines.

Yes, but there needs to be greater research done on the vaccinations and vaccinations that do know meet these high standards should not be mandated.

No, but vaccines should be heavily encouraged and required but not government-mandated, especially for people who are forbidden. There are alternatives that could work for such people.

Complex and provably and issues for a government's. Respect religions and other beliefs, given insightful and true information though campaigns. Strongly encourage it etc

I believe every child should be vaccinated but if there is a family history of adverse reactions, respect the parents.

Parents should have a choice and education should be provided about preventing diseases and hygiene. No one wants forced vaccinations, and no one wants disease outbreaks, it’s a hard argument.

Yes, but with exemptions for children who are immunocompromised or chronically ill where vaccinations may be ineffective or dangerous, determined by doctors.

Yes, AND we should be requiring updated vaccines or titre tests for adults who are travelling to at risk countries, AND all vaccines to all people should be free including pop-up outreach services in shopping centres etc.

Yes, but with exceptions for those who are immunocompromised / have other underlying medical issues increasing vaccination risks

Vaccination should be advised by a board of experts without influence from pharmaceutical companies. The actual vaccines should be free but not mandatory

Yes, but only if the vaccine has sufficient (years worth) of research and is known to have little to no side effects on the majority.

Yes as long as the child receiving the vaccine does not have a pre existing medical condition that may put them in danger

No, I think people should stop trusting the things they are putting into their bodies by the government. Teach the kids how to stay away from sickness. Keep clean, sanitized, and stay away from sick kids. Punish parents that send sick kids to school or in public.

Yes it should be required
but if someone is not vaccinated (on religious grounds or otherwise, and someone gets infected with a DEADLY and or CONTAGIOUS diseases or disease) then they should be finned (the amount depending on financial circumstances)

No, vaccines that have decades of evidence base testing, with open and transparent information that is easily accessible to allow all Australians to a more informed decision. These should be provided free of charge to all Australians. Those who decide not to access the vaccines should be made to incur the medical expenses relating to complications of contracting the diseases by the parents not the public.

As long as it is not the Covid vaccine or others that suddenly came out of no where with little to no testing

Yes but only for deadly contagious diseases like the bubonic plague or polio. COVID isnt dangerous enough.

Yes, but only for deadly contagious diseases such as the Plague or Polio. COVID isn't deadly enough.

There should always be the option not to take the dose I think that is a basic human right, but I still do believe in doing my own research as well as listening to trusted sources and heath professionals to make my own informed decisions on wether or not I will get the for so mentioning drug.

Yes, as long as it is safe to do so for the child's wellbeing (side effects, allergic reactions etc).

It depends on whether or not it is a 1 time vaccination that will stop something forever or if it a yearly vaccionation tha only grants a small amount of immunity. It also depends on what type of vaccine it is.

Only for deadly diseases (black death, polio, etc. not covid, its not dangerous enough to require a mandate and the covid vaccine isnt good)

Provide free and accessible information from many different doctors on viable solutions to certain illnesses which won't always require vaccinations.

Yes, but only if the vaccines being administered have gone through numerous medical trials and have been verified as safe for the human body (most of them already are, but this position only applies for precaution's sake).

yes in some circumstances

Only against deadly contagious diseases, the funding of public ad campaigns about the risks and benefits of vaccination and disease and holding parents personally liable for non-vaccination and transferring deadly diseases to other children.

Just let people pick what they want to put in their body, man

yes, with the exception of those with religious and or detrimental health reasons that forbid them.

They shouldn't but children should have the autonomy of choice from the age of 9/10.

only if this person has been "disgonsed or infected" with this and then with a vaccination to prove how bad it is.

Yes except Covid vaccine.

Yes, while you should be able to make decisions about your own body, not taking vaccines put other people’s lives at risk and you shouldn’t make these choices about other’s bodies

I think there should always be a choice especially for those with religious beliefs and extenuating circumstances but that it should be not required but heavily pushed for deadly contagious diseases.

Yes, but only for deadly contagious diseases and not in cases where there is a family history of longterm poor physical health outcomes from vaccination

Yes, but only for deadly contagious diseases. COVID is not deadly enough however. This is for worse diseases like polio.

No however children should be homeschooled til a certain age for proper emotional growth within selves to create a more liberated and protected foundation within one’s skin

Yes, but it depends on the vaccine, the persons medical history, religion and if the parents consent to it first

No, but if your child requires medical attention from the health system, it shouldn't be up to the rest of the tax payers to foot the bill.

Yes, but those who are allergic or who have had a reaction to the vaccine are excepted

Yes, but be culturally aware as to why people might not be vaccinated such as people with particular religious beliefs.

no, because it might affect the children negitively if they have a condition that could cause their body harm because of certain substances reacting negitively

if the kids want to

No, but require financial contribution to care associated with public health care costs of treating the disease in unvaccinated

Should be able to choose what you want

depending on the age of the child

No one should be made to have vaccines.

Yes, except for continuous objections for religious or other reasons, they need to demonstrate they have an understanding of the risk associated with the decision

yes, from an appropriate age

yes to the immunisations but no to the corona virus vaccine

I agree with vaccination but it's the parents choice.

Yes as long as the vaccines required align with the WHO recommendations

Yes but considerations need to made for those with genuine vaccine allergies or injuries

Shouldnt be mandatory, should be pro choice. And certainly covid shouldnt be mandatory. And all information relevant to all illnesses should be made clear with no agendas or businesses profiting from scare tactics through media.

No, Should be a choice. Choices should have consequences and that being , if you are not vaccinated you cant go to that school.

Yes, unless they have a medical reason not to (anaphylaxis etc)

Yes but not COVID

Allow parents to decide what they would like to vaccinate or not vaccinate their child for.

Yes but not Covid and not until the vaccine has been around tested for a 5 year

Yes, but only against the old school diseases and not against Covid as those vaccines are NoT safe!!

Yes, and I say antivaxxers should be arrested for child abuse. The exception is if the kid can't be vaccinated due to being immuno compromised. If the parents are just misinformed, try to educate them but if they still refuse vaccination then, child abuse.

This is an individuals choice as its their body

Let parents choose if they would like there children to be vaccinated with no discrimination

Up to the individual no matter what.

Yes but not for covid Unless government supports covax and their trials are successful

It’s up to the child I think. Nature runs its course either way.

if the parents say yes

Yes , but not for Covid

Their choice!

It should be available but not mandatory

The parents should decide weather there kids get vaccinated

Yes unless that vaccine will cause that particular child serious harm

As long as vaccinations are properly tested before being released.

Yes wherever possible to prevent others unable to vaccinate from getting sick but avoiding forced vaccinations.

Yes but at the choice of the parents

Vaccines should be reanalysed & reviewed every 5 yrs & essential ones should be mandatory, the ingredients in the vaccines need to be reviewed

The decision to vaccinate children should be the choice of the parents

Stick to what we currently have in place. Strong no against the use of temporary approved vaccines.

Yes, for those who are medically okay to receive them

The Government should not get involved with personal choices

No, but it should be encouraged more, along with information about what the vaccine can do but also side effect (you get to have side effect or death warning for surgery before signing the ok) but also information comparing what could happen if they don't have the vaccine (people take chances with insurance all the time with the fact they might have an accident)

In a democracy, parents should have the right to decide for their children. However, parents must consult with a doctor before making the decision. Moreover, all people should abide by the laws that protect others.

Vaccines cause 5G

Yes unless the people can't have vaccines for whatever reason

No. Because this question does not separate the use of traditional vaccines with covid 19 vaccines.

Parents choice to chose what goes in their child’s body while their children can’t have a say in it

Government should encourage it and strongly recommend it but at the end of the day it's the persons choice whether they would like to receive it or not.

No, but give informed information to parents about all potential risks and benefits. Bodily autonomy is freedom which should not be revoked

Yes, provided that the child does not have health concerns that may be exacerbated by the vaccine.

No, and I support the right to bodily integrity and the rights of parents to choose for their children
