This is nonsense.

Vaccination did not stop measles or whooping cough, and has not even reduced their spread (only their symptoms) despite decades of availability.

Both of their vaccines are leaky - just like the Covid vaccine.

What? Measles is almost entirely constrained to the unvaccinated and we vaccinate babies for pertussis at 2 months.
Sorry, meant to write flu. Not sure why I wrote measles.

Measles vaccine is, indeed, likely the best vaccine ever in terms of efficiency and safety. It’s also sterilizing rather than leaky.
