NHS figures - 1/2 a million children unvaccinated in the uk

500,000 children is a terrifying number of children who are unvaccinated, and through no fault of their own putting every other child they spend time with at risk.

Every week on skynews I am reading about another university or area which has been placed under quarantine due to a measles outbreak.
This is something that shouldn’t be happening when in 2016 measles was eradicated in the U.K.
There are young babies and immunocompromised people who can not protect themselves against this deadly disease, please help me make this a mandatory vaccination.

One headline I read today could not have been more accurate in its portrayal of this subject, the measles vaccine is not a choice, it is a social responsibility, one far too many have forgotten about and therefore putting a lot of people at risk.

Please help me by signing this petition, it doesn’t cost a thing. I need more signatures to show our health secretary this is something which is needed so we can protect those who can’t speak for themselves.
France and Germany have both put this in place to protect their citizens, why haven’t we.
