No badges no deal. 
I understand your POV on this one. I could imagine eventualities or possibilities all day that would end up twisting litigation into knots on this issue though.
If we're going to call this one a right, then there's no harm in seeing how far you can take this right before you're infringing upon someone else's rights. If one wishes to forego vaccination, and they wish to keep this private, is there any situation that you could conceive of that they would have to bend on this issue in the face of the rights of others, such as the right to health? There has to be some situation or circumstance in which this information becomes public domain. Ergo the big red letters, somewhere, by any other name.
Wouldn't you agree that a person with a communicable disease such as, oh, IDK, AIDS, has an obligation to inform at least someone of their condition. Especially one specific type of someone?
