Childhood vaccines: recommended, never required
The national strategy for 2023 to 2030 says it in as many words: vaccination is free, and compulsory neither for adults nor at school.
If you skip them: Nothing. A vaccination bill with fines has been in and out of parliament since 2017 and has never passed.
Exemptions: Not needed.
