Call this an oppression of liberty if you like, but it is the state that has to deal with the ensuring epidemic that low vaccination causes.

Good on them.

Clearly the Auzzie government is in cahoots with the devious reptilians.

Absolutely, I think we could learn a lot from a number of Australia's no-nonsense policies, especially with regards to welfare and immigration.

"He said that there would only be a small number of religious and medical exceptions to the new rules"

This right here is a much larger problem. Again, you are allowed to break certain laws if you are a certain religion.

Either way, i don't think this is a good idea. If a parent refuses to vaccinate their kids, they should have their kids taken from them, and given prison child for intentionally putting a child at risk.
