Point fingers at the ultra-orthodox and scream about child molestation, since that is exactly what they are afraid of happening if people speak about it outside of their community -- you are basically validating what they are saying to themselves when they keep it a secret.
If they weren't actively trying to cover it up then people would be pointing at the particular people responsible for the child abuse and screaming at them. As it is, in exactly the same way as the Catholic church has, their community are trying desperately to cover it all up, shield the perpetrators from any sort of punishment and allow them to carry on doing it

They'll happily stock martial arts magazines, full of special features about new and exciting ways to hurt people.

Oh perhaps that's just me
So, people who commit atrocities in the name of Jesus aren't real Christians, but people who commit atrocities in the name of Muhammed are real Muslims.
Is that how you see things in your world?
Generally speaking, no, I don't support the government being able to inject any random chemical into people's bodies.
I'm more than happy to make an exception in your case though
If the people refusing vaccinations were the only ones affected by that refusal, i'd agree with you.
