If your kid is vaccinated already, then what is the worry? They are immune; right? So your concern is primarily ideological.

- kd5bjo 8y agoFor individuals, vaccines aren’t 100% effective at preventing infection. Primarily, they are useful to increase the herd immunity of large groups, and limit the scope of outbreaks— this only works if enough of the community has been inoculated.
- URSpider94 8y agoIn every measles outbreak, some of the victims are indeed vaccinated. Being unvaccinated based on a whim (as opposed to kids with immune deficiency, on chemo, etc) hurts everyone.
- docker_up 8y agoYes, it's 100% ideological. I don't want to associate with people who don't believe that vaccines are necessary to prevent illness. They probably have other beliefs that go against science and I don't want those people in my life, or my childrens' lives.
