Dinesh Kamath's Editorial 'Childhood vaccinations are a ‘MUST’' that was published in Newsband

Childhood vaccinations are a ‘MUST’
To refuse to have your children vaccinated is an attack on society. Refusal to vaccinate only endangers the children.  
Opposition to childhood vaccinations came from fundamentalist religions. The irresponsible, self-centred, arrogant and idiotic behaviour of the anti-vaccine crowd should not be tolerated.,
Polio is officially extinct in the west, but is still very much a part of life in poorer countries. Small pox, on the other hand, is officially extinct, thanks to vaccination.
Science is ever progressing, yes. The peer-reviewed evidence continues to unequivocally support vaccination. Those people who are anti-vaccination think that they know more than almost the entire medical and scientific profession, who have spent many years looking at all the evidence available.
It should be a legal requirement for all children to be vaccinated. Thousands of children used to die from diseases which we can now prevent. One or two may have bad reactions to vaccinations, but many more thousands are protected.

The only people who argue that it is a 'myth' are fringe anti-vaxxers with no real understanding of the science. Vaccination is a security issue. Vaccination should be compulsory. Anyone trying to persuade parents not to vaccinate their children should be punished by law. Vaccination provide a lifetime of guaranteed immunity
