Our medical care got steadily better so fewer children died. The graph doesn’t show that along with deaths measles causes side effects like blindness, deafness, and mental disability. So when a normal childhood disease hospitalizes 40,000+ children a year it seems wise to vaccinate against that outcome. Children being hospitalized is not a normal part of growing up.
