Your argument implies that the people that don't vaccinate their children are consciously inimical to their health, when the fact is that the parents are trying to do whats best for their children.

Heck, sixty years ago, the majority did not believe that tobacco was a carcinogen. What 'settled science' is going to be overturned in the next sixty years?

I don't think any parent could be sane, rational, well-informed, and opposed to vaccinating their kids, so clearly there has to be something more going on there. And it's not that parents are insane.
