What I think it translates to is some clinics not doing a thorough enough job. If every implant center refused to do an implant without proof of vaccination from the GP/pediatrician, then it wouldn't matter whether the families remembered if the vaccination had been done.

Did you see the article that said that over 50% of parents of children with CI are unaware whether their children had completed the vaccine? So much for awareness. The child is at increased risk, the parents are unaware, and the parents are not certain whether their child has been protected fromthe risk. That all translates to increased, not reduced, risk.
