UK health secretary won’t rule out forced vaccinations | Sky News AustraliaThe UK health secretary has revealed he will not rule out making immunisations mandatory, saying that anti-vaxxers 'have blood on their hands'.\n\nMatt Hancock said he was ready to 'consider all options', and although he does not want to impose mandatory jabs for diseases like measles, he did not rule it out.\n\nHis comments came after figures released by Unicef last week showed that more than half a million children in the UK were unvaccinated against measles between 2010 and 2017.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n Wow, you know who else forced medicated it's citizens ? The Nazi party. First they took the guns away from citizens in the UK now they are considering mandatory injections? Utter tyranny! What happened in 1776? Big pharma are the only ones who will profit from this. If the vaccines worked then you should not be concerned if someone is unvaccinated. This is why Americans are armed to the teeth. Because if the government comes to your home to forcefully inject you, you will have the ability to defend yourself and your family from being molested by a tyrannical overreaching government. Do not ever allow this to happen people!
