AlFHg 330 Posted August 6, 2018 #134 Share Posted August 6, 2018 I was wondering about something that in the last year has been debated almost everyday in Italy. In your country, are vaccines mandatory? If yes, what do you think about it? ( yes, it is another sleepless night) Sindo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heywoodu 13,500 Posted August 6, 2018 #135 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Vaccination is not mandatory here, but most people do let their children get vaccines, resulting in the 'group immunity' percentage needed. Annoyingly though, especially in our 'Bible Belt' people are reluctant to letting their children get vaccines, putting their own kids and those of others in danger by refusing vaccines.

It's evern more annoying when not only fanatic religious people do that, but also people who think they are expert about science and medicine because they studied through...Google and Facebook.

NaBUru38 204 Posted August 6, 2018 #138 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Vaccines are compulsory in Uruguay. There's plenty of stuff that require paperwork that proves it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LDOG 2,181 Posted August 6, 2018 #139 Share Posted August 6, 2018 I didn't even know there were countries where they weren't mandatory. How come you don't end up with outbreaks of things like smallpox then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How come you don't end up with outbreaks of things like smallpox then? In a perfect world it would not even be necessary to make it mandatory because everyone want to vax themselves/their children. But if too many people do not want to vax then it's necessary have to make it mandatory. Also some children can not get vaxinations because they have some diseases which would make vax on them dangerous. Outbreaks are avoided through "herd/group immunity", but if too many people stop vax their children this will not happen anymore and outbreaks will be much easier, especially between non vax children.
