School age The baby with measles died This week in Texas, becoming the first elastic death in the US in 10 years. This child was Dozens Children without infected children in an angle angle, Two State Brush of A disease The US had officially deleted 25 years ago.
Texas and Mexican public health officials with vaccination clinics, contact traces and Exposure alertsPeople are still sick This disease for preventing vaccine prevention. Measles is one of the most polluting diseases on the planet Change before finished before. More people will get sick. We hope that anyone else will die.
However, on the same day, on the same day, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. Secretary of Health and Human Services, reduced the scope of this explosion. “It is not uncommon“He said, referring to other folises this year and eventually, and most hospitalized children saying that they are fifty he Sick, it’s just being isolated to prevent disease spread.

This is a lie. This year’s explosions are unusual. For one, this is a third explosive of 2025, and we only have two months. Secondly, at least 133 cases are confirmed in today’s new Texas / Mexico brushes, which is half of the infection. 16 brushes reported last year285 Total cases. RFK, Jr., “quarantine” has also been wrong about children: they have been hospitalized They are having trouble breathingnot only to keep isolated.
We didn’t once eradicate the diseases we had to fight. We don’t have to bury children who could live long and full of life, and we would not suffer from others. Because of all this Defends AntivaccineRF, Jr., has sown childhood immunizations for all political proclamations Acquisition of awareness And the freedom to choose, this child had no choice. No other sick. In terms of public health, our choices do not stop us. And Our leaders Simply do not recognize that.
Of course, there are medical reasons why some children cannot be vaccinated. This is not about them. As a nation, as a nation, they have decided that it is more important than our collective health than a million reasons. We saw this play during Covid, which claimed More than a million lives Pandemia between 2020 and 2022 at the summit. People don’t Trust Government. They don’t Confidence doctors. They don’t trust scientists. They don’t Trust vaccines. Instead, many of us say that we tell us What we want to hear. We trust Evidence we like and discard the rest. We don’t want to must be said What to do.
But if you believe in what you want to believe, challenge those who challenge, without the basis, we have evidence Work collectively improve everyone’s healthWe fall to the right in the trap What is trying to do misinformation: Distract us, so we don’t have what is happening on our nose.
And the measles vaccine is the perfect example.
For decades, people around the world have inoculated Direct virus. This is the tension of the virus of the measles, cut on his knees. It teaches our immune system Recognize and attack A real wild virus, without being sick. But we do some of us. Insert a few people and then a rash, fever, basically a less Live case of measles. (And few people, with the two dose vaccine regime, ill stay anyway.) And that’s what people see people on social media Guilt vaccine the same to cause measles. I don’t care how the poor child would suffer because they got a whole infection, one can affect Brain swelling, breathing or real death.
Or, as RF, Jr., did it SamoanLook at the scarce evidence around the vaccination of two elastic vaccinations and declared the cause is that they were accidentally prepared by accidentally with a relaxing muscle with a relaxing muscle. And now, with small public discourses, Trump Administration has delayed a meeting National vaccine expertsRooting an impact and conflict with people interested in population health. Maybe the secretary will find something – Who knows? In the meantime, he certainly sows in distrust literally The only thingThese are non-antibiotics, why many of us also survive these conversations.
Nothing in health is perfect. The human body is complex and individual, and as I said In a previous columnWhat it works for, it won’t work for others. Too many people see the risk of vaccine disease, when it exceeds the risk of achieving the measles itself, and now it is clear that the risk of increasing measles.
The evidence has repeatedly showed that human populations need a 95 percent vaccination rate to ensure the immunity against measles; a We are falling in the US. For the mennonita community in the center of Texas Brush, members decided to deal with vaccination, if they had to vaccinate them if these children have not had the opportunity to prevent these children. And instead, the evidence indicates that this part of the state is not enough vaccination. But 82% of people In Gaines County, in Texas, they have the epicenter of the explosive, their elastic vaccines. One of the three schools of the Gaines County region has 46% of the region of MMR (measles, Pieces, ruble) vaccination. MMR vaccination rates for many schools in the port of Texas.
Meanwhile, if the antivax movement and thinking that we prevent the prevention mechanism that prevents it, if it fails, we should completely ban it, Modern measures has no great deal“We’re very little and fever and then ended.”
Texas patients did not agree.
