Petition Make it a legal requirement to vaccinate your children

On the 20th August 2018 it was revealed by Public Health England that in the first half of 2018 there were over 800 cases of measles, almost four times as many as there were in the entirety of 2017.

France has already made immunizations a legal requirement.

Between 2004 and 2014 there were nearly 10,000 cases of Measles and over 81,000 cases of mumps
