This has nothing to do with the Amish interpretation of the Bible, or the Hasidic Jews with their view of the Torah and Talmud, or Christian Scientists with their reading of the works of Mary Baker Eddy, or any other spiritual writing.

If immunization presents a specific disease, then if the vaccinated are exposed to unvaccinated , they won't be affected by the disease. Mainstream medicine and science has been wrong in the past, e.g. the food pyramid and the relative harmlessness of cigarettes. The bottom line is that the opinion of mainstream medicine is no more "settled science than is man made climate change. Parents, and not government, have the responsibility to make decisions on their children. It does not take a village, it takes a family.
