    So you’re saying that 97% effectiveness isn’t good enough so we shouldn’t bother at all?

    No, I’m saying that the people who choose not to vaccinate their children are putting those 3% at risk.

      Ohh! I misunderstood. Sorry about that. I thought you were taking an anti-vax/nihilist take on it.

        No worries. You get tons of credit for admitting you were wrong. Most people don’t do that. Another poster made the same mistake, and simply attacked me when I pointed it out (but subsequently deleted it because I think they realized they were wrong).

      They are putting more than those 3% at risk. What about all of the kids that are too young to be vaccinated? They are the real ones at danger
