So basically nobody died from it. 🤔
Why do we do a measles vaccine again?

To save 2.6 million lives, 60,000 cases of measles blindness, and 5-10% of all hearing loss.

An American being vaccinated isn't going to save some 80 IQ savage in Africa or India, nor should we want to.

That's right. An American being vaccinated will mostly benefit Americans.
We benefit from the inventions and expertise from better education in Africa and India, and should want it. Even if we are psychopaths that don't want other people to have better lives. Most of us just empathise though.

Why are you trolling?

Im not. 500 people out of a population is basically nothing. 500 people probably die a year sneezing too hard.

You are trolling. Though post 1963, 500 died agonizing deaths annually, 5 million annually got measles in the US through much of the 20th century, and before. And a vaccine was necessary to eradicate polio. And before those vaccines, millions more suffered and/or died. of preventable measles and polio.

The parents of each of those dead children would rather that they were vaccinated and alive.
So what?

So those of us with empathy can see the value of vaccination.
