Jabs to avoid

To deny children nursery places because they are not vaccinated (News, 18 October) would amount to blatant discrimination . Some children are not vaccinated purely due to parental choice. Others, however, are refused some vaccinations on medical grounds. My second child suffered febrile convulsions. His subsequent siblings were refused my requests for vaccinations on the grounds that there was 'a history of convulsions'. How could you fairly discriminate between the various reasons for non-vaccinated children?
