    survival of the fittest is doing its thing, even if innocent people go down as victims of stupid people, such is life and death.

      That is a complete misunderstanding of how evolution works. This does not weed out the people who are not genetically immune from a disease. If civilization died and measles came back in force in two generations, it would be just as deadly as it was before vaccines were developed. Because this does nothing to genetically change humanity’s ability to fit into an ecological niche.
