One thing I want to say though, that no matter how clean our country is, and how healthy the food is or good their home is, a disease can especially still be bought into the country easily enough and spread, and no amount of healthy food or water is going to stop you from contracting it. Plus it is a scare for pregnant women, I was around a child who was not immunised that had contracted measles when I was in early stages of pregnancy, if I had've caught this (i had a test, and was immune) it could have cause seriously complications with my uncorn child including deformities.
I think Lindsay asked about the severity if immunised, and yes it is true that if the child is immunised, if they contract one of the diseases the severity of it should be less.
On the childcare issue, a government centre or school can tell you it is their preference not to accept un-immunised children, but they can't legally refuse them admission, but the parents do have to show one of those objection cards, they can't just say no they are not being immunised.
This may be a controversial opinion, but I am entitled to it and feel strongly about it, and I hope that no-one feels the need to attack me for it, so far this debate has been very well behaved!! but I would prefer that there be much stricter rules concerning permanent resident's and immunisation, and some kind of compulsary schedule.
