The measles outbreak in Texas has jolted even famend anti-vaxxers like Robert F. Kennedy Jr., to reverse course and suggest that youngsters and oldsters obtain the measles vaccine.
Measles is probably probably the most infectious illness recognized to man and could be lethal, as demonstrated in Texas. Kennedy referred to as the outbreak a “high precedence” and inspired dad and mom to speak to their medical doctors about vaccinations in opposition to measles. He mentioned the vaccines “not solely shield particular person youngsters from measles, but additionally contribute to group immunity, defending those that are unable to be vaccinated on account of medical causes”
For God’s sake, put your biases and conspiracy theories apart and speak along with your physician, as Kennedy suggests.
