In all seriousness, these people seem to think their mission is noble... Imagine, for a second, that you are convinced of some "irrefutable truth," and it seems all political, government and scientific bodies are against you. Everyone has colluded together to put profit and money first, and the safety of humans last (not an unreasonable conclusion to make given the state of our medical industry). You, alone, are the thing that stands between children and suffering... (putting aside the obvious fact that having measles causes much more suffering, but bear with me here).
How does anyone convince this couple that they're wrong?

If any company you know could produce a product for which they could never be held liable for misproducing, you would call foul and that people must by all means be protected from that lack of accountability. Enter big pharma as a vaccination company. Suddenly, the good they are doing overwhelms any and all sense of holding them accountable for bad actions. Surely, this kind of thinking must strike you as duplicitous, no? Vaccinations are good, by and large when there is good feedback and accountability as to their safety and effectiveness. However, when a company no longer has a need to be accountable to its customers, what happens? Remember the US auto industry in the 70's? They made the worst cars pretty much in history. Why? Because they could get away with it.
