Because the vaccine doesn't "take" 100% of the time in every single individual (most are somewhere between 90 - 95%). In order for the vaccine to be effective, there must be a certain percentage of the population inoculated to prevent a suitable reservoir from developing, hence the term "herd immunity". We seem to be approaching that tipping point in certain parts of the United States with certain diseases.
Oh, and what damn websites has the FDA shut down for spouting anti-vaccination nonsense?
