County debates shots Bayfield reeve Ed Oddleifson sees no reason why a complete series of im- munizations shouldn't be required for children entering public, separate and private schools in Ontario and questioned the health committee of Huron County council when it recommended Friday that council not support a reiolution suggesting complete immunization, The resolution was made by the Peel Regional Board of Health and sent to county council for support. The Peel health board requested the 'province require, as a condition of entry to primary school, that all parents produce a satisfactory certificate of immunization excepk, p, cases, where„ , upon medical advice, immunization is not advised. The. Peel group claimed that only 75 percent of children of school entry age have been satisf a ctorily immunized against communicable disease posing a- threat to-the general public by the remaining 25 percent. Mr. Oddleifson told council that no child or person should be able to pose a threat to society claiming they should be confined o'r immunized to protect the health of the public. He said he could see no reason why council would not support the resolution. Health committee chairman Paul Steckle told council that his committee did support the resolution but did not recommend • council support it. "It says do not concur, " said Mr. Oddleifson referring to the health committee report. "The committee strongly recommends that people take immunization shots but -does not want to force it," said Mr. Steckle . "Do we want to legislate people to do everything? There are ways of containing the diseases and as long as that is possible we have no, need to force immunization." "Are we not going a step to far when legislate people 'to act against their conscience or religious convictions?" He asked. ( Mr. Oddleifson said he respected personal beliefs as much as possible but didn't feel an individual. could threaten ,society fpr any reason: He told council that as a child he has been "innoculated against all . kinds of things" and had never had a major disease. He said government had an obligation to protect society as a whole. The Bayfield reeve said the recent polio outbreak that sent the country into emergency polio immunization — Vas an example of the protection he was talking about. He said that situation was unique because it was immigrants that had brought the disease into the area but pointed out that if immunizations had been thorough the emergency measures would not have' been required. , "You did mention the disease can be contained," he told Steckle. "It should not have been allowed to start." Rte..
