Is vaccination required/permitted? Rav Eliashiv's view

 update see Wikipedia - vaccine controversies
 Regarding the discussion about medical procedures such as genetic testing or vaccinations, I was sent this recording of Rabbi Tatz discussing the issue of vaccinations in a situation where is is accepted in the general population to vaccinate children. He asked Rav Eliashiv who paskened that if everyone does it then it is permitted without evaluating the risks.

The discussion of vaccinations starts at about 27 minutes
