A leading immunologist warned of a “post-herd-immunity world”, as measles outbreaks affect communities with low vaccination rates in the American south-west, Mexico and Canada. The US is enduring the largest measles outbreak in a quarter-century. Centered in west Texas, the measles outbreak has killed two unvaccinated children and one adult and spread to neighboring states including New Mexico and Oklahoma.

I feel for you, only shot I've skipped ever have been influenza. I am in the Novavax COVID-Flu combo clinical trial, w very few placebo cohorts, and the single shot ones are small too. They are mostly fine tuning the formula during this trial with different levels of the adjuvidcant.
