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.

Measles sounds overblown.

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

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