Herd immunity for measles is 95% vaccination if I recall correctly.
Google says rates are falling, and we’re at 92.7%
The sad thing is that the electively unvaxxed people are probably going to be fine. Measles sucks, but most people get through it without any issues. The people who are unable to get the vaccine because of medical conditions… It’s basically a death sentence for them.
Plus, elective antivax is dumb. Those people get rabies shots when they get bit by an animal, because they know that the vaccines work, they just like to deny it when the disease isn’t extremely fatal to them.
