I agree with the general sentiment that dissenting opinions are good for science, but science is about coming to a conclusion via experimental evidence. Questioning the party line, given supporting evidence, is perfectly valid. But that's where I think the difference is between comparing conservatism/religion (as beliefs that educated and intelligent people hold) vs anti-vaccination. I majored in a hard science at a conservative Christian university, and all of my professors both had Ph.D. degrees and were Christian - but science and religion are not wholly mutually exclusive. There is no hard evidence to support religion, but neither is there evidence entirely contradicting it. So, believing in evolution doesn't negate the possible existence of a God. None of my [science] professors, however, were Creationists.

In contrast, the evidence does not support anti-vaccination. If she believes in the anti-vac movmement, it's not because she saw the scientific proof that vaccines are bad. So, in this case, I do think that as a scientist, she should be smarter than that.
