I don't think there's any good evidence vaccines played a role in mitigating those diseases. They were very much on the wane and all but gone when their respective vaccines were introduced. The book Turtles All the Way Down may elaborate on this. (I have yet to read it, but such is my understanding from the reviews. Make sure you get the real one, not the book with the same title intended to confuse.)

I believe formulations have changed. And that's more the case with the inactive ingredients (which people point towards more as the culprit) than the active ones. The schedule surely has. I'm an old guy and only got a few of these, but kids today are supposed to get like several dozen.

That's a good question to ask - whether or not other societal changes may be contributing. But that's another question that won't be investigated adequately. Clearly we're doing something wrong. There has been this massive increase in allergies as well as autism (and other chronic diseases). But people are very averse to thinking they're wrong. (I don't get that. I'm always happy to find out I was wrong about something. It's an opportunity to improve.) No one wants to ask a question where the answer might be painful. e.g. Fauci presided over all this mess, so by any reasonable objective measure he's a colossal failure. But if you believe him to be a hero you get to believe we have heroes at the helm. And isn't that pleasant?
