Great article, Denise.
I think the criterion we need to apply for a policy is to assess the intention of the parents.
Are they Christian conservatives? No, their opposition to vaccines is not acceptable.

Are the parents concerned about Big Pharma's incursions in science? Are we turning our backs on indigenous, non-Western alternative practices? These are valid concerns, so we should empower parents into making the right choices for their community.
