By allowing children, whose parents refuse to have them vaccinated, access to his/her office, a physician would violate medical ethics and risk possible legal jeopardy for allowing other patients to be exposed to an unnecessary risk.

I assume that these other patients are vaccinated. Don’t you trust their immunity? Are you aware that recently vaccinated children can be carriers of the disease they were vaccinated against.

Many of these vaccines also would qualify as being exposed to an unnecessary risk.

Some can't be immunized due to age, type of illness of just have such a suppressed immune system that vaccination is not effective. It has nothing to do with “trust.” That's why I mentioned the term “herd immunity.”

If you are interested, “google” that term and read up on it; then you will understand the concept; why I mentioned the term and how it pertains to these types of individuals.

Take care,
