But this was not the law up until now in NYS.

I know that it was not written in the law but that's the spirit of the law. I'm just explaining why everyone is saying that religious exemptions were misused in this case. It is not accurate that this anti-vax belief stems from religion as far as our community is concerned.

Bully for her. It's probably her credit that they now banned religious exemptions altogether.

just clarifying that the article was in 2011 and the court ruling was more than thirty years ago and everything was just fine and dandy since then until now

Until the outbreak. Since the courts had already set a precedent by this woman that they will not define what constitutes a religious exemption, the legislation had no choice but to ban them altogether.

There's no harm in waiting till when? Till a kid uses drugs, multiple partners???
Why do babies need it at 2 month.
Hepatitis b vaccine is not offered in hospitals it's given, unless a parent is more informed and refuses it.

Many people that I know put it off with their doctor's acceptance of the decision and did it later in infancy or childhood. I think that most frum mothers delay it because hepatitis b is not an immediate threat to the baby. I do agree that it should be given during childhood because we don't know what the future holds.

I don't get this. Do you believe the CDC's explanation? Or not? If you decide to choose from its recommendations, why don't I get the same opportunity?

you can still do a bris
that is called coercion and it's against our constitution |
I'd be interested to hear arguments for or against that.

That perhaps only moves the question to "what is a recognized faction?". Or maybe "who is a member of clergy?" And what if someone doesn't want to show up to work after a long melaveh malka that is prepared from scratch after the kosher stores open and can find a rabbi to write a letter? Or in communities where many of not most men have semicha? Might a "letter from a rabbi" standard result in "every citizen to become a law unto himself"? That quote is from Reynolds v. United States, 98 U.S. 145 (1878) although not being a constitutional lawyer (or any other sort) I don't know if there have been any subsequent rulings about that.
I don't have an answer to the question myself.
Reynolds was about a polygamous Mormon. I wonder, in cases of a Heter Meah Rabbonim without a secular divorce, could there be similar issues? And why go that far, what about a Get without a secular divorce?
