Is it the law in every state that a medical procedure can be forced on a minor, if the parent does not want the medical procedure, but it is for the good of the child?  Why don't vaccines count in this and are there any other exceptions?

I'm not a lawyer, but the impression I get is that you have to get a court order to go against a parent's wishes to give a child a medical procedure.

 My question is, is that something the court can order in every state.  I only know a couple state laws and finding this is proving difficult.  Or hell, finding if there is a federal law is even more frustrating.

I think barring an allergy or medical reason not to get a vaccine, vaccines should be 100% mandatory. Sorry about it. Your rights stop when you put others at risk. Or at the very least if you don't want to vaccinate you have to go live out in the middle of nowhere and not go out in public places and definitely not be able to attend public school. It is not fair that newborns too tiny to be vaccinated yet or people with immune compromised illnesses or people allergic to vaccines could be made sick by your voluntary decision. One of the times I think the good for all trumps the individual.

Where I live the kid would have to be home schooled because they would not let them attend school.

I found this that talks a bit about the law/exemptions for vaccines but devolves into a call to arms to fight back against losing the right to not vaccinate.
