Yes, potentially that could be the case. However, as I mentioned earlier, vaccinated kids are less likely to become ill in the first place and if they do it will be a lesser form of the illness. Having a less severe form of the illness means you are less likely to pass it on to other vaccinated kids as they already have a degree of immunity.
Immunisations are meant to protect the community as a whole, but that does fall down when (I think) immunisation rates drop below 90%.
Satya, good point.
