I was vaccinated for it and *still* got it as a child. It suuuuuucked. - Diva Sep 24, 10:39 7
- The vaccination is not 100% effective, but the more people that are vaccinated, there is a less chance of being exposed. - GregW Sep 24, 10:50 6
  - It sucks that this is the case. Otherwise, this would be excellent natural selection. - Dr.Vermin Sep 24, 10:53 4
    - The problem, like Diva said, is that it isn't just the unvaccinated that are affected. -- nm - GregW Sep 24, 10:55 1
      - Right, that's the part that sucks. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Sep 24, 10:57
    - it's nasty and anything that can be done to prevent it needs to be done. - Diva Sep 24, 10:55 1
      - I'm long overdue for my TDaP booster. - znufrii Sep 24, 10:55
