In regards to not following a religious belief. I had a discussion with my sister's orthodox Rabbi about breaking a religious law on moral and ethical grounds. It is against the Jewish religion to drive or use a phone on the Sabbath. If there is an accident with injuries in front of your home on the Sabbath and no one who is not an orthodox Jew is around you must do whatever is necessary to protect the injured whether it is calling 911 or if necessary driving the injured to a hospital. The sin would be to not do anything. Not having your children vaccinated is the sin.
