Contrary to the Brady Bunches portrayal of measles as a fairly trivial 'disease', it is in fact quite a nasty one. Can cause death, blindness, birth defects, and severe permanent neurological problems.
The MAIN cause of the current outbreak(s) is that a HUGE preponderance of GEN Z'rs are NOT VACINATING their children anymore ... against ANYTHING ... including polio because they are ignorant. That info comes straight from MY health provider yesterday.
It is NOT due to immigrants (some problem there) and NOT due to a live virus vaccine (severely weakened strain).
It is almost entirely due to RAMPANT 'all vaccines are extremely dangerous' hyperbole - ie. FEAR MONGERING coupled with intense ignorance of many parents today.
