There have been a handful of breakthrough infections this year. While 92 percent of the nation’s measles cases were unvaccinated or their vaccination status was unknown, four percent were fully vaccinated, the agency’s data shows.

4% vaccinated infection. If it wasn't for the 92% of anti-vaxers getting it, I'm pretty sure none of the vaccinated would have either. So even with the potential less effective dose for people like myself that according to your dates only got one shot, infections would still be pretty much non existent if not for anti-vax.
