Australia To Stop Payments To Families Who Refuse Child Vaccinations

npr.org Australia has announced plans to halt welfare payments and child care rebates to families that refuse to have their children vaccinated — an aggressive move aimed at clamping down on a rising number of parents who opt out of immunizations. Prime Minister Tony Abbott said Sunday that the government was closing a loophole and would stop payments of up to $11,500 per child (15,000 Australian dollars) for parents who don't get their kids immunized by claiming to be "conscientious objectors."... MHFM Comment: This is horrible.  This move by the Australian government is a reaction to the fact that more and more people are discovering the harmful effects of vaccines and opting out.  Governments want to stop the movement of awareness now, before it grows even larger and threatens the whole vaccine industry.
