Choice is a good thing, but using the choice argument is less strong for anti-vaxxers. Circumcision is an incredibly invasive intervention, which may prevent some things where less invasive interventions may be as effective or significantly more effective (i.e., regular condom use). Vaccination is quite literally the best defense we have against some of the most infectious awful diseases that the world has ever seen, rarely have serious side effects, and aside from a needle being a bit scary, is pretty non-invasive.
Science has made the case for universal vaccination (some exceptions apply), but I don't think an honest case (at this point) could be made for universal circumcision.
