Elizabeth and Bryony have been best friends since meeting at university and are now godmothers to each other's daughters. Although they don't see eye to eye on lots of issues, especially how they raise their children, it's never gotten in the way of their love and loyalty for one another.
Elizabeth's daughter, Clemmie is about to turn 7 and she is excited to be throwing her party. But when she reads an article that a child has died from measles and that vaccination rates in the area are at an all-time low, she panics. Clemmie hasn't had all of the usual childhood vaccinations due to seizures as a baby and Elizabeth decides to call all of the parents to check their kids' vaccination status before the party.
Bryony has been conditioned to be fearful of vaccinations due to her brother's autism being blamed on the MMR vaccine and as a result her daughter Alba isn't vaccinated either. But when asked, she isn't entirely transparent in her response and there are tragic consequences!
