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 Childrens 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?
