Well that's the point really, it's the disingenuous illusion of choice. "Oh of course you can still CHOOSE not to do it... your child will just have to be home-schooled and never attend public events". Which makes it not a choice, and tantamount to being mandatory, just with a caveat for people who are normally against such things to engage some cognitive dissonance and pretend that they're not going against their usual set of values... which a lot of people are willing to do, because certain institutions (mainly US big pharma that's spilled over into UK pop culture) have done a (very) good job of making people disproportionately terrified of communicable disease.
