Great. Perhaps you will answer the question then:

Do you feel it is right that there is no compensatory award made when a child under two years old is killed or severely disabled by a vaccine?

You will of course be fully aware of what constitutes severely disabled for the purposes of this exercise and thereby noting exactly what level of harm is precluded in any event regardless of age of injury, for those who are unaware of the same.
It’s utterly irrelevant to the discussion and as I’m not a lawyer I’m not going to prevaricate about it. As you’re not a doctor I suggest you stop talking nonsense about vaccinations.

Answer the question that many have asked, are your children vaccinated?

So the risky vaccination prevents people getting a perfectly natural disease.
That disease then mutates and the vaccinated people end up getting a more complex version of the same disease.

Sounds like a lose lose to me.
It’s not a risky vaccination and the vaccinated people do not get a version of the disease.

Fortunately we live in a relatively tolerant society where parents don't have to have their children inoculated by the state just yet. Education, not making inoculations mandatory, is by far the best option.
Education isn't working. This thread is evidence of that. In this thread we have genuine comments questioning the "agenda" of the NHS when it comes to administering vaccines.

Jasandjules has been a member here for over a decade, and comes across as well educated whenever I've encountered their comments. But in this thread....

Education isn't working. MOre and more children are going un-vaccinated, and outbreaks of preventable diseases are increasing.

I'm quite happy for vaccinations to be optional. I don't think un-vaccinated children should be allowed into schools or pre-schools.
All for separate schools.
It would be interesting to see who is healthier in the long run.
My money would be on the youngsters who build natural immunity.

Of course it's risky. Even Doctors admit that. Next.

What about those with confirmed Hep A, B, HiV? Should they be allowed into school? Why do you only fear the illnesses for which there is an existing vaccine? What about HPV? What about those vaccinated who are shedding? Why should they be allowed? What about those who are immune compromised?

What about those Muslims or Christians who do not vaccinate for Religious Reasons? Are you suggesting their Religion and beliefs are unacceptable to you or wrong?

And of course, your initial supposition is wrong, look at 2006 to 2013 rates, compared to the more recent years.

I think that the fact that there is no compensation if a child is killed or harmed by a vaccine under two years old is VERY relevant. In fact it is difficult to suggest anything more relevant to the discussion at hand. Remind me again when many vaccines are given?

Why do you think the Act of Parliament expressly excluded this age range and why do you think it is acceptable?

I'll try again. What point are you trying to make?Can you distill it down into a sentence or two? You're firing a lot of questions at people without answering any yourself. You've linked to a couple of articles, at least one of which you clearly completely failed to understand, but other than that you don't really seem to be saying anything other than relaying the 'wisdom' of your plumber.

Spit it out man.

Have you been directly affected by this particular issue? You seem very exercised by it.

Edit to add: also you seem curiously obsessed by the issue of financial compensation. Very... weird.

No, the best I can do was vaccinating both of my children.

Why have you cherry picked the years, why not look at the all the years where the trend is clear and it isn't what you want it to be?

Anyway, my "initial supposition" is that education isn't working. I stand by that. You and Woody are proving it every time you post.

I amazed that this level of outright thick has pervaded PH. I know there’s some sub-optimal intelligence on here when it comes to race, religion and general acceptance of others but I had no idea there’d be anti-Vaxxers on here, the absolute stupidest of all people. Jesus Christ.

Rubbish. No doctors say the mmr is risky. Overwhelming evidence to the contrary is available.

He's not actually posted any insults towards those who don't share his opinion yet. I'd suggest your comment is somewhat back-to-front.

It’s utterly irrelevant and pathetic attempt to divert the discussion from your sheer hypocrisy.

Confirmation you don’t understand how the immune system works.

What then will protect those without this 'natural immunity' you're assuming exists?
