Measles is a serious disease in an adult, the older the worse it is..................
I hear they are working on a vaccination for this.
She was vaccinated, and they now know that is only 93% effective? And being vaccinated twice is 97% effective? Should we all run out and be revaccinated for everything?
(In New York) Cases are occurring mostly among unvaccinated or under-vaccinated Orthodox Jews, particularly children. PEACH — or Parents Educating and Advocating for Children’s Health — appears to be targeting the Jewish community with misinformation about vaccine safety, citing rabbis as authorities, through a hotline and magazines.
The Somali-American community in Minnesota, the Amish in Ohio, and, more recently, Russian-language immigrants in Washington — have recently fallen victim to measles outbreaks as a result of vaccine refusal.
When I was a little kid, everyone knew measles was a serious illness if you got it as an adult...which is why most of the kids I knew had to go play with a kid who had measles.
Hmmm, that person who’s infected 39 people in Michigan was on a visit from NY. Was he/she on a flight to NY with this flight attendant?
