I'll admit I'm pro-vax, though I don't consider myself a zombie. Previously immunized individuals contracting disease is nothing new - no vaccine is 100% effective, nor do any claim to be. There is always the chance (especially in immuno-compromised individuals), but it should reduce the severity and duration (much like the flu shot).

As you said, 1 in 1000 cases of measles results in death.

From the CDC, on complications of the vaccine:

Moderate Problems
• Seizure (jerking or staring) caused by fever (about
1 out of 3,000 doses)
• Temporary pain and stiffness in the joints, mostly
in teenage or adult women (up to 1 out of 4)
• Temporary low platelet count, which can cause a
bleeding disorder (about 1 out of 30,000 doses)
Severe Problems (Very Rare)
• Serious allergic reaction (less than 1 out of a million
doses

And yes, I think you're a lunatic for wanting to do this to your child. Unfortunately, there's nothing I can do other than cite statistics and state my opinion.
