Victorian pre-schoolers will be banned from attending child care or kindergarten unless they are vaccinated, under new ‘no jab, no play’ laws to be introduced by the State Government.

The new laws will be introduced within weeks and will come into effect on January 1.

“Vaccinations save lives,” Health Minister Jill Hennessy said.

“We are getting tough on this issue because it’s important that we start addressing things like a significant increase in whooping cough.

“We know the spread of things like measles is becoming more virulent.”

Ms Hennessey said there had been 1,000 more cases of whooping cough this year compared to last year.

Vaccines child being vaccinated

She said the matter was a community safety issue.

“It’s not just in the interests of an individual child, but all of us,” she said.

“Our aim is not to exclude kids from early childhood services. Our aim is to get people immunised and we’re going to use this as an incentive and a prompt.”

Vaccination rates plateaued

It followed moves by the Federal Government to strip social security payments from parents who do not immunise their children.

Conscientious objections would not be allowed and only those with a doctor’s certificate would be exempt.

“The science on this issue is really clear. Vaccinations save lives,” Ms Hennessey said.

“I pay no heed to those [who] go around putting mistruths out about vaccinations

“We know that it is absolutely essential to get your children vaccinated if you can and only if there are medical reasons as to why a child can’t be vaccinated will that be acceptable.”

Vaccination rates in Victoria have hovered around 92 per cent for a number of years but that number has plateaued.

“So we know we need to do more to lift it, bringing in ‘no jab, no play’ laws which we are hopeful will help lift those vaccination rates,” she said.

  • This is horrendous. People have legitimate reasons not to take these concoctions. This is not even a veiled attempt at showing itself as being a totalitarian government. There are known serious side effects – worse than the virus being dealt with and you have no recourse if anything goes pear shaped – if your child dies there is NO responsibility and they will do everything they can to cover it up, hide, deny and basically treat you like the surfs we’re becoming. These laws should be abolished and alternative methods of “encouragement” used instead of the heavy hand of the law – encouragement could include “PROVING VACCINES ARE SAFE”, “PROVING THEY ARE EFFECTIVE”, “PROVIDING RECOURSE FOR INJURIES AS A RESULT OF VACCINES”. Until this is available then there’s no common sense behind these laws which means we’re no longer a common law country. BTW, they are treading a fine line with Commonwealth Constitution of Australia, Ch.1, Part.V, Section 51.xxiiiA
    (xxiiiA) which state…”the provision of maternity allowances, widows’ pensions, child endowment, unemployment, pharmaceutical, sickness and hospital benefits, medical and dental services (but not so as to authorize any form of civil conscription), benefits to students and family allowances”
    It may not be conscription, but it couldn’t get much closer – personally, I think this is just wolves in sheep’s clothing.
    And boy am I getting sick and tired of the “herd mentality” “what about the rest of us” rubbish argument – if YOUR child is vaccinated and you BELIEVE is works, then what the hell are you worried about? It’s the vaccinated children that are coming to school infected and asymptomatic that spread the diseases. The unvaccinated children get sick, stay home, get natural immunology and then come back to school. So this lady is basically proudly spreading diseases all over Victoria – I’ve left Victoria for this very reason and because of a few of their other draconian rubbish laws. This law should have never made it past gazoontite! https://globenewswire.com/news-release/2015/02/04/703096/10118656/en/Corrections-Studies-Show-that-Vaccinated-Individuals-Spread-Disease.html
