There aren't, really. You aren't required to attend public school, for example. If you choose to attend public school then you prove you have whatever vaccinations are required, but nobody's forcing you to do it.
I am highly opposed to vaccination requirements to enter private businesses. That amounts to forcibly deputizing business owners against their will and holding them to a higher standard than actual sworn officers. The Supreme Court has already ruled that sworn police have no duty to enforce the law, yet the government will require these unwilling deputies to enforce the vaccine law. That's completely unreasonable IMHO.
It's wrong for public institutions to discriminate against students also. Those schools are paid for woth public money. For many families, they can't afford a private school or to homeschool. Likely because they pay so much in taxes to fund schools and public institutions.
Discrimination is not bad in and of itself. When we hire the best candidate for a job we're discriminating against the less qualified. When we purchase product A instead of product B we're discriminating against the more expensive product.
I wish they'd discriminate against people who come to work sick. States should allow employers to charge an employee who comes to work sick any illness pay the company has to pay other workers who become sick because of that.
In the case of immunizations that actually work and have a proven track record there's no legitimate issue I can see to excluding people from group situations who are unwilling to remove themselves from the vector pool. Everyone has the freedom to make their personal choices, but that doesn't mean they're free to force me into accepting the consequences of their choices. It's like saying you have the right to decide to fire your gun into the air and it's my responsibility to protect myself from falling bullets if I'm worried about them.
So your argument is that every single person should get the vaccine so that everyone else doesn't have to? That makes no sense.
There aren't any as of now. That situation changes very soon.
