Mlhouse, thats the problem with using national statistics. The 2 if the largest measles hot spots,by zip code,were Boro Park and Williamsburg, 2 centers of large Jewish populations.
And your point is? The fact remains that our community’s vaccination rate is higher than the national average, which means we have fewer anti-vaxxers than most communities do. The outbreaks in our communities did not happen because we had a low vaccination rate; they happened despite our rate being high. But maybe if our rate had been even higher they wouldn’t have happened. It’s impossible to know. There is no such thing as 100% safety, but we should try to get as close as we can.
