| To be honest, there really are no 'required' vaccines.  If you don't want your kid vaccinated, you don't have to.  My wife got her initial vaccines when she was a baby but never got any others.
 I'm pretty sure that Christian Scientists don't get vaccinated.  They don't believe in advanced medicine.  They are the ones who, when they break a leg, don't get it treated.  Instead they pray for God to fix it.  Amish people might feel the same.
 
 Forcing vaccinations would be a potential separation of Church and State issue.  It would be wise to add this vaccine to the list of vaccines kids get before puberty but I wouldn't want to force anyone to get it.  My problem is only with those who would attempt to suppress this vaccination by undermineing the general population.
