Remember when politicians said everyone should get covid to develop heard-immunity? And then we had more than one million deaths since then?

    No.

    The problem isn’t people who have been vaccinated against measles, the problem is people who haven’t, can’t, or are otherwise immunocompromised.

    Those people would have all of their immunities reset. People who don’t get measels because they have the vaccination will be unaffected.

    Plus the current COVID variant is quite unlike the one in 2021, and we’ll all need to get vaccinated against the next surviving variant anyway. Coronaviruses suck in that way.

      I… didn’t say the problem was people vaccinated against measles? I’m saying unvaccinated people will have their COVID immunity reset, regardless of natural immunity from previous infections. Basically the pandemic starts over for unvaccinated people.
