i did not think covid vaccination was something healthy people should do, because the chances of complications from the vaccine, while low, appeared to be higher than the chances of complications from the virus. strictly playing the odds actually meant you should try to beat it on your own. nor was i very concerned about building herd immunity to the common cold, or did i think it was very plausible to happen. i argued it was the responsibility of the vulnerable to protect themselves from infection, not my responsibility to protect them from getting infected.
measles, on the other hand, has a 20% hospitalization rate. it's a much more serious disease, and you should absolutely vaccinate your kids.
