However, the document is too public health oriented and does not pay enough attention to human rights. Even when it does claim that "if the public health threat were grave and if mandatory vaccination were more likely to be successful than any other strategy, and the cost to children was sufficiently small, it might be justified", it is difficult to determine what is "sufficiently small" and even "small" could be debatable. Additionally, in a human rights approach, the right of the parents to decide over the health (and life) of their kids and the impossibility of children to consent the risk of vaccination is not enough addressed.
