I worked as a medical receptionist 17 years ago and we had to have all sorts of shots and tests as a requirement of employment.

But you knew that BEFORE you accepted the job, correct?

To: who knows what evil?

I had to have the TB test before being hired. But, I also realize that employers do change conditions of employment as time goes on. I don’t like the idea of being forced to have a shot in order to have a job, but it is still a choice, as difficult as it may be. I was petrified with that TB test, but I did it. It was my decision.
If someone is working in an office and the company moves, there is a choice sometimes to drive an extra 10 miles or lose the job. The company may change computer systems and the employees must learn or leave. A company may expand its hours to Sundays; work the weekend or find a new job. Granted, none of these have potential health issues, but possibly religious ones. The bottom line, is that an employer can make uncomfortable new requirements as a condition of employment, even after a number of years.
