- My reply this morning to a question about the number of people who have got vaccine exemptions for measles, reducing vaccine induced herd immunity well below the safe level of 95% and causing our Ontario measles outbreak -why on earth do we allow this? #onpoli www.ontario.ca/page/vaccine...
- Every year there are more seeking exemptions so we’re well below the 95% vaccine rate for measles: www.publichealthontario.ca/en/Data-and-...
- Medical - yes I'm fine and agree with that. Conscience / religious - hell no. That's insanity and puts everyone else at unnecessary risk. ---
- “For conscience” should be honestly rewritten to: “For refusing to believe in scientific evidence and recognizing that refusal of the vaccine could result in severe illness or even death”…..
- Medical exemptions only. And sanction “doctors” who abuse their discretion in providing unjustified exemptions. Public health relies on the public (parents) acting pro-socially. Don’t want to? Your risky social options should be curtailed: no school, no organized sports. Feel free to homeschool.
