Herd immunity is a thing, God, we had this debate 20 years ago when online antivax movement started.

Same goes with measles, measles epidemic can occur if vaccination rate falls down under certain threshold. My country had few measles outbreaks few years ago.

Herd immunity from a vaccine is still a fantasy. It has never been achieved, and never will.
