    I also think that parents who don't vaccinate should be charged higher health insurance premiums to cover their children. They are, after all, at a much higher risk of getting vaccine-preventable diseases and of infecting others.https://twitter.com/skepticalraptor/status/1104894805652500481 …

    Anti-vaccine liability – should they pay for the harm they cause to many others? In an editorial, @DoritMI thinks the laws should allow those harmed to do so. - https://go.shr.lc/2Trd1aD  #vaccineswork pic.twitter.com/eRNc0AOHvI

        It’s medical neglect, and they should be reported to the appropriate child protection agency.

        Isn't there a sort of precedent in being HIV+ and sleeping with someone without telling them?

        They should be charged with voluntary manslaughter if their anti-vaccine stance results in deaths.

        Too bad Wakefield could not be made to pay punitive damages to the autistic community he has harmed. There would not be enough money in reality.

        @noUpside We need to strengthen not weaken community rating, and society will end up paying for the treatment of uninsured kids anyway. Doesn’t the CA experience show there are other effective ways to drive vaccination rates up?
