So you would be selfish and possibly infect other unprotected people?
Vaccination is not a treatment nor a cure, it is a preventive and protective measure.
"Disease prevention is the key to public health. Vaccines benefit in particular the people who receive them, and in turn, those people cannot spread the disease to others who have not been vaccinated. Infection cannot spread if it never gains a foothold. Infectious Diseases cause enormous suffering, strain the health care system, and deplete financial resources. For the individual, the health care provider, the interests of preserving human and financial resources, it is better to prevent disease than treat it."
