I remember that case. I was on his side. I don't think even very essential personnel should be forced to do something like that. Maybe in a time of war- you could make a case for it. But right now- people who want vaccines should be able to get them. And people in the military and health professions should be asked to get vaccinated. Just my opinion.

They didn't even tell us what we were being vaccinated for when I was in the Navy (1976-1979). I received 3 or 4 different sets of vaccinations (sometimes one in each arm) in boot camp followed by the vaccination I related in this thread earlier called Swine Flu. Most of the stuff they SAID was to prevent sickness abroad. There are possible side effects and immunological problems from over-vaccination. I don't know how to balance this, but considering the virulence of Small Pox and the fact that intelligence says that it is out there, it seems irresponsible to not act.
