Just throwing this out there: I grew up going to meetings as a Jehovah's Witness, I'm still semi-connected to the religion, and I've never heard of any JWs not having their kids vaccinated for religious reasons. I knew one woman who didn't have hers vaccinated, but it was typical stupid anti-vax stuff, nothing religious. By and large, I'm pretty sure JWs don't have any issue with vaccinations?
Blood transfusions are a different story, obviously, but I'd never heard of that among JWs.
