Random question: when immigrating to the US, apparently it is required you get some shots (hepa b, tdap, MMR and flu shot)

From what I've learned, some of these are not totally safe

Does anyone know of a way to avoid these shots?

Like a doctors note, religious exemption, etc

A religious exemption is your best bet. I looked into this briefly a few years ago for someone but they ended up already getting all the shots as a child. There will likely be some pushback and some people you speak with will tell you that it isn’t optional. A lot of them don’t actually know because most people just blindly take the shots. Make sure to pushback and insist that you can’t because of religious reasons and speak to someone higher up.
