Removal of child benefits for anti-vax parents in the UK 2019 | Statista

In 2019, it was found that 30 percent of Brits who were surveyed believe that parents who choose not to vaccinate their children should be banned from receiving child benefits, while 46 percent think that they should not be banned from receiving these benefits. Healthcare professionals were slightly more likely to believe that anti-vax parents should have their childcare benefits stopped, at 32 percent of respondents.

Do you think parents who intentionally choose not to vaccinate their children should or should not be banned from receiving childcare benefits?
