I had to be vaccinated to enter first grade, and again in college. Since I went to a public school, doesn't that already kind of answer this question?

MMR vaccines are sterilizing, i.e. you take them once and done. No lifetime booster subscription.

Current Covid vaccines are non-sterilizing. They do not provide immunity that is equivalent to the MMR vaccine.

A future (nasal) Covid vaccine may offer long-term mucosal and blood/serum immunity.

Why isn't the nasal vaccine being produced?
