Some parents have decided that they should not give their children vaccines, but recently there has been in outbreak in measles and other diseases. This issue has given politicians another thing to talk about and it has become an issue of liberty and personal choice in some cases. People are mistrusting of the government and have fears that vaccines are not safe. Some people think it is a must while others think it should be your choice, but it is clear that no one is agreeing.
This article relates to political parties and differing ideologies. The more libertarian people may believe that it is your right to chose, while more conservative people may believe everyone needs to be vaccinated. I believe that everyone should be vaccinated, because it can't hurt to be protected from a terrible disease. There have been more cases of some of these diseases lately so it is important to be protected.

I completely agree with what you are saying! I think that parents should vaccinate their children, but also people should have a certain mistrust in the government! When people place all their trust in the government, bad things can happen.
