Strongly agree

No, but require vaccination in order to attend public school

The FDP is more likely to support this approach, as it allows for individual choice while still promoting public health by requiring vaccinations for those attending public schools. This aligns with their values of personal freedom and responsibility.

Agree

Yes, but only for deadly contagious diseases

Agree

Yes, they are essential to protecting other children who are too young to be vaccinated

Agree

No, fund public ad campaigns about the risks and benefits instead

The FDP may support public ad campaigns as a way to educate the public about the risks and benefits of vaccination, but they are unlikely to see this as a sufficient alternative to vaccination requirements for public health. They may prefer a combination of education and vaccination requirements that respect individual choice.

Neutral

Regardless, this should be decided at the state level

This answer is not directly applicable to the German political context, as Germany is a federal parliamentary republic and decisions on vaccination policies are typically made at the federal level. The FDP may support state-level decision-making in some cases, but this answer does not directly address their stance on vaccination requirements.

Disagree

No, but hold parents criminally liable for transferring deadly diseases to other children

The FDP is unlikely to support holding parents criminally liable for transferring deadly diseases, as this approach may be seen as overly punitive and infringing on individual freedom. They would likely prefer a more balanced approach that encourages vaccination without resorting to criminal penalties.
