Unfortunately that’s not how it works. Once herd immunity is broken, shit gets bad.
There are probably some great visualisations of this on youtube that can show the maths of this far more eloquently than I can explain it, but if you take a look at that you’ll probably think “oh fuck.”
Not only can many not have vaccines due to allergies or it interfering with other medications/conditions, but they can also catch diseases before they get theirs, they can miss boosters accidentally, and vaccines aren’t 100% effective.
Everybody loses from this. Not just the kids of anti-science parents.

Yep, I caught all three, Measles, Mumps, and Rubella, before I was old enough to get the vaccine.
This was because the MMR vaccine had a 5% failure rate back then and I spent a lot of time in hospitals as an infant due to a birth defect.
I caught chicken pox around the same time as well.
