Back in the day, the real danger was only to pregnant women and infants.
Families would literally have ‘measles parties’ to expose their children.
With the appalling health of today’s children - diet, inactivity, jabs, etc. - I have no doubt that the health risk between measles & the vaccine is a crap shoot.
Still, if I had youngsters today, I’d choose ‘no’ for them and opt for direct exposure later. Obviously the medical nazis have made such a choice as difficult as possible...
After the vaccine there was no need for measles parties.
