I fully agree
I contracted measles as a teenager; I'd had one dose of the vaccine but the recommendation to receive two doses came later
Even one dose of the vaccine measles was unpleasant, I can't imagine how bad it would have been with no vaccinations.

@RantingCanuck@mstdn.ca @hrefna@hachyderm.io That’s a great point. If a vaccines does not prevent you from getting a disease, they do minimize the impact if and when you do get it. My wife just had shingles and we both believe because of her vaccination, it was relatively mild.
