I don’t think anti-vaccination should be forbidden.
Everything which violates physical integrity of a person, even if its for the “general good” should not be forced and different measures should be taken into account.
I mean, should be something voluntary.
Other thing is that you speak about the lies and myths in most people around it.

Except there is no real alternative to vaccination. It’s the best way we have to prevent disease outbreaks, and the concept of herd immunity, where people who can’t be vaccinated are still protected (infants and the elderly, those who are allergic, organ transplant recipients, HIV/AIDS sufferers, people with other immune system problems) necessarily require that everyone who can be vaccinated is vaccinated. That combined with the fact that vaccines do not provide 100% protection for any individual person, by not vaccinating, you put everyone around you at risk of potentially deadly diseases, which, if you’re talking about violating the physical integrity of people, is a pretty egregious example IMO.

Aaaaaah, okay is more about the myths and people who deny benefits in a conspiracy sense.

If there is no viable replacement in the alternatives it is our duty to look for one or improve the current ones.
Setting the most efficient just because of that is just utilitarianism.
