    I think this is a good call out to either get your immunity tested or just get the booster. I have a good primary doctor who routinely gets her new adult patients tested for immunity to the common diseases vaccinated against in childhood, and I tested negative for measles. I would’ve had no idea that I lost immunity and needed a booster otherwise.

      The point is, the more people vaccinated, the less we have to worry about the 3%. And even for the 3%, the disease is attenuated.
