A member asked:

How can vegans get vaccinated for anything?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Like anyone else: Most vegans are intelligent people who recognize the value of immunizations even if they contain some animal products, and the fact that there's no substituting. Similarly, religions that forbid eating pork allow the faithful to take a heart valve derived from a pig.
