I'll offer a counterpoint. Some people have extremely adverse reactions with vaccines. Those who have predispositions that can lead to extreme reactions should be able to opt out of vaccination because they may in rare cases be more harm than good.
Now, most people should be vaccinated and those few that aren't should hopefully be protected by herd immunity.
To say that the quality medical systems and herd immunity decreasing the risk of those diseases nullifies the dangers of adverse reactions is a bit unfair.
To close, I agree that most everyone should be vaccinated and that philosophical beliefs are not valid reasons to avoid vaccination. I do disagree in that I believe that there are a number of rare situations where vaccination is legitimately more harmful than just relying on herd immunity.
