Viral infections increase susceptibility to bacterial infections.

In addition, measles can damage or destroy the immune system, wiping out past immunity and leaving the person unable to mount proper immune responses during future infections or immunizations. Measles also causes deafness and blindness and can return several years later to cause an encephalitis that is invariably fatal.

It’s a shame the kid wasn’t vaccinated. This death did not need to happen. And I have to say that I seriously do not understand the depth of belief in antivax nonsense that leads parents to conclude that even though they just lost a child to a disease that is 93% preventable with a vaccine, they still won’t protect their other kids against disease. Unbelievable.

Your prior pontifications about the wonderful mRNA vaccines make all your statements suspect IMHO. They didn’t age well over the last few years.

Get off your vaxx vaxx trope. Everything solved by a vax. Stop dancing in the kids blood.

She was killed by a medical mistake of failing to address the pneumonia in a correct timely fashion. She came in with a mycoplasma. The hospital neglected to Rx the correct antibiotic.

That hospital is going to get sued beyond mars and some staff are going to lose their jobs,licenses and if they are lucky they get to keep their lives. The family has the medical records

I had a similar situation with my wife about 2 yrs ago when she contracted pneumonia. They wanted to vax her for Covid and send her home with Paxlovid. All so her treatment could get the 20% boost back.

I made it clear that medical treatment protocols require that the pneumonia be treated and failure to do so could “result in bad things happening”. Yeah I can read X-rays. If I wasn’t there to advocate for her she ran the real risk of a ventilator and death.

So you can take your GD jibby jab and shove it. Go find Fauci so you can cyber-fellate him

It’s because our own govt repeatedly lied to us and forced nonsensical lockdowns and forced people out of their jobs if they didn’t go along with it all..
