Facial scars occur in 40% of the <20% of children who had scars, which is therefore less than 8% of the unvaccinated population, who are mainly over 30 at this point, so that’s now about 5% of the US population, not 40. And since most the scars are not lifelong, probably fewer than 2% of the population of the US carries chickenpox scars on their face. That’s not incredibly common.
You’re trying to force reality into your preconception, but it doesn’t work.
