>If it becomes easily transmissible between humans, either the antivaxxers change their minds fairly quickly or the only people left will be ones who believed in vaccination.
Evolution in action, people: move with the times or remove yourself from the gene pool. It's incredibly sad, and I wish it weren't like this, but if you can't be persuaded with logic to do something for your own safety and the safety of others well... there's a point at which we can't do any more for you, and we have to let nature take its course.
Edit: in case it wasn't obvious, my comment above is in support of vaccination.

>can’t calculate fahrenheit into celsius on my own
For a rough guess, simply subtract 30 and divide by 2.
This would make 70°F ≈ 20°C (actually 21°C). 100°F ≈ 35°C (actually 37.78°C) and 30°F ≈ 0°C (actually -1°C).
This quick and dirty formula starts to break down at cooking temperatures, but still great for a rough guess at weather.

The group B approach is exclusively used by organisms with low offspring investment. As the amount of investment goes down, the quantity of offspring increases.
We aren't like that - it takes a humongous amount of resources to raise a functional human. So we either slip backwards from our humanity and become simpler organisms with less offspring investment required, or we have to expand infinitely to gather enough resources. The latter is impossible, there's always going to be some limit to expansion, so we would be left with the former; backsliding.
You're right in that option B is a viable evolutionary strategy, but it's not a world in which I want to live. I'd rather be a person amongst peers than a king amongst idiots.
