Australia to Enforce Strict Immunisation Policy
澳大利亞實施嚴格的免疫政策
The Australian government is cracking down on parents who refuse to immunise their children. Prime minister Tony Abbott says that the government plans to stop offering family benefits to parents who fail to comply with a new vaccination policy. Whereas in the past Australian parents could decline vaccination for their children based on a personal objection, now only a few medical or religious exceptions will be accepted. The change is expected to come into effect early next year. Since the announcement, thousands of Australian parents have signed an online petition against the policy.
澳大利亞政府正在打擊拒絕給孩子進行免疫的父母。澳大利亞總理托尼·阿博特稱政府計劃停止對違反疫苗接種新政策的父母提供家庭補助。在過去,澳大利亞父母可以出于個人原因而反對注射疫苗,但是現在,只有少數身體或是宗教原因可以排除在外。這一計劃預計將在明年早期生效。聲明公布以來,上千名父母在網上簽署了請愿書,反對這一政策。
