Anti-vax parents share tips online on how to flout no jab, no play childcare laws
Anti-vaccine activists are using online guides to teach families how to circumvent “no jab, no play” laws and keep their unvaccinated children enrolled in Victorian childcare centres.
Step-by-step guides on social media on how to exploit loopholes and the potential falsifying of immunisation records have experts worried that families flouting the system pose a risk to the health of other children.
The No Jab No Play legislation was enforced in 2016 to boost rates of immunisation against potentially serious or deadly childhood illnesses such as whooping cough, rubella, chickenpox and mumps.
The federal government can withhold childcare subsidy from the family of an unvaccinated child. Victoria has gone further and banned children from enrolling in childcare centres if they are not inoculated, unless they have a medical exemption, a healthcare card or meet specific criteria. But Australian vaccine refusers, forming online communities of up to 15,000, have been devising and sharing techniques to dupe childcare providers.

This is sheer insanity. I know we have a cohort of anti-vaxx idiots, but no idea it was this big or dangerous.

Dox me? Or are you speaking in the abstract. I hope so. 
You are right: they are idiots and they will find themselves locked out of daycare, various subsidies etc. Hopefully none of their children die.
