Re: Measles Outbreak in Antivax Population
LindaLou, 345,000 deaths last year from measles which could have been prevented by a simple vaccination. It's true poor nutrition and lack of medical care makes the death rate higher, but measles is highly contagious so almost everyone exposed to it that hasn't been vaccinated for it gets infected. I think you need to read up on the historical death rates in first world countries for childhood diseases prior to immunizations, it's very sober reading.

including vaccine-production media, that are removed from the final product and present only in trace quantities.
