Should you have a decision in terms of what you are vaccinated with? Yes of course. That you brand that as 'spreading disease' based on some hypothetical as should be considered criminal is silly. Like even if you just skipped one? hah. Talk about pandoras box you are opening up.
Let's stop that train of lies right off the fucking bat. This is about vaccinating children, so fuck right off with this deciding what vaccines go in your body shit.
Not vaccinating is the same as driving around shitfaced. You might not kill anyone, but you are a reckless piece of shit.
Right you are saying that neither the parents nor the children would have any choice in the matter of a government mandated collection of vaccinations for the child and if they resist then it should be treated like they are criminal. Yes?
The parents would be yes. Children would be taken away, and vaccinated In a safe manner under the supervision of a doctor.

Like everyone else I thought anti vaxxers were crazy...until I watched my normally developing child fall into a complete regression after receiving the MMR vaccine .
I'm all ears if anyone has any insight as to why a perfectly healthy child starts to regress on milestones after being on the normal trajectory

Too small of a sample size to matter to me. My state has twice as many people as your country. I'm talking about a wider spectrum of people than a couple dirty basket weavers on a barren flat.There definitely is ideology involved though, it's just that it's on both sides of the spectrum in America.
Mostly because the US has a paranoid libertarian faction that doesn't exist to a significant degree in other nations.
Locally anti-vax is mostly the province of leftist, anti-corporate (big-anything) hippy women, who are politically characterised as "Balmain Basket Weavers" (although really it's the Sydney city centre and Byron Bay/Nimbin which have the worst vaccination rates).

In the US, anti vax is not the domain of the left or righ, and though people love to add it their litany of lib-dumping, it's an inaccurate accusation usually made by people with limited experience.
Yikes, science is being attacked from all sides in the US but this segment is coming from an area with the means and educational background to know better. Its one thing for yuppie housewives to think a coloured stone can bring healing properties; or that the arbitrarily defined positioning of stars during a birth month can determine your personality and future...but to actually defy the logic and science proven for over a century to work, thus outing your kids in easily avoidable risk, is just batshit crazy.
I also think the same should happen to parents who deny their children cancer treatments, starve them on fad diets, etc.
Hurting children should not be allowed because you are also an idiot.
Should I have to pay for breathing oxygen?Are You? It's a simple question. Should spreading disease be allowed?
If I don't vaccinate my child, and they get another child sick who dies, am I at all responsible for that? If my child dies from a disease I refuse to vaccinate ate for, am I responsible for that?

One of us is sitting behind a computer googling studies and the other is right here on the ground looking at what's in front my eyes.Hah. What "matters to you" isn't important in terms of statistical significance.
Plenty of studies have been done on the subject, mostly in the US (although also international studies), and they show a strong ideological correlation.
Just not one specifically linked to the right or the left, as opposed to low levels of trust, a willingness to hold more extreme, minority beliefs, and to believe that you're special (aka the Dunning-Kruger effect).

Your experience in Australia really does mean nothing to me here in the states bouncing between rural farmland and urban centers, I think I got better idea of what's going than you and your googling.
I’ve got quite a few neighbors with a minimum of 5 kids, one lady has 13. Let’s just say, they don’t even understand English, the parents that is. Now their kids are citizens and they can stay
It’s almost like they are trying to change the demographics
