That’s because they had never encountered it before and had no natural immunity.

I can see that for some like in that situation, immunizations would be very beneficial. However, for someone with natural immunity built in through their ethnicity, it’s a different matter.

The real concern is that should something happen where vaccines are no longer effective nor available, there would be a lot of people in a lot of trobule if they were not immune from childhood exposure.
