MMR vaccination is a no-brainer when you compare the actual risks. For many children, measles isn't merely a few days of fever and rash. Based on pre-vaccine-era US surveillance, approximately 7%--9% of infected children developed otitis media, 1%–6% developed pneumonia, and 0.1% developed acute encephalitis, which often causes permanent brain damage. That's one in one thousand. About 0.1%–0.3% died, and SSPE, a fatal degenerative brain disease that can appear years later, occurred in roughly 4–11 cases per 100,000 measles infections. Hospitalization was (and is) also common, particularly in young children Now about one in four. Don't try to blame this on nutritional status - You're claiming that these Amish and Evangelical Christian children are undernourished.
The known serious adverse-event risks from MMR are dramatically lower. Febrile seizures occur in approximately 1 per 3,000–4,000 doses, are generally brief, and are not associated with long-term effects. Anaphylaxis occurs in roughly 2–14 per million doses, and thrombocytopenic purpura in approximately 1 per 30,000–40,000 doses. Fever and rash are relatively common but usually mild and self-limited. That does not mean vaccination has zero risk. It means the documented risks of the vaccine are far smaller than the risks of the disease it prevents. For a healthy child, choosing MMR is not a close call: it is accepting a very small, well-characterized risk to avoid a substantially larger risk of serious illness, permanent disability, or death.
You must not know that even in the 60s, before the vaccine, the survival rate was over 99.9%.
You must not know that the MMR is a live virus vaccine & can cause measles.
You must not know that it's a very mild childhood illness for well-nourished children.
You must not know that natural measles infection provides lifelong immunity, unlike the vaccine.
You must not know that there are huge lifelong health benefits to getting measles, including a lower risk of certain cancers & stronger immune resilience.
You must not know that the MMR insert lists over 60 serious adverse events, ranging from encephalitis & seizures.
You must not know that studies show Vitamin A drastically reduces measles complications-yet public health officials ignore it.
🚨The MMR also contains fragmented DNA from human babies.
🚨Listed on the MMR box, WI-38, which was developed in 1961, is composed of fibroblasts derived from lung tissue of a three month old white female fetus and is in the MMR vaccine.
🚨Did you also know that the manufacturing companies have immunity and cannot be sued?
If you think any of this is normal, I have questions for you.
Yes!!! It should always be a choice. If it prevents the disease, nobody should have to worry about someone elses vaccination status. Some people dont want to take that risk. Weve all had Measles, and we all survived.
It is good news that a healthy diet is so important to fending off measles. I would say this is important to fighting off any illness, wouldn't you?You state this while at the same time the maga/ Heritage plan of creating food insecurity is being implemented. Cutting off snap benefits for low income families. Firing food inspectors. Importing bad beef and adding it into Americans food chain, polluting our waters and cutting off our access to affordable health insurance. MAHA needs to talk to itself about how they are not helping Americans to become healthier.
Nutrition is not consistent through the population especially in food deserts that characterize many communities. Most people can’t afford healthy food. Cuts to programs that provide food to children - often their most nutritious meal of the day, doesn’t help. Perhaps if MAHA was a bit tougher on nutritional standards and additives the way we are on supposed election fraud and anti-vaxing, we might build
a healthier citizenry. I understand those who feel they have a right to every decision in their lives but public health has to take a precedent over personal bias. It’s like giving a ten year old the choice of going to school or not. Okay, maybe 15 year old. The fact you malign media at every turn and indirectly, undermine public health officials who have decades of work to substantiate the need for broad based vaccinations is scary. I’m not sure what you are deforming us into but the US is becoming an ugly place. As we move from we to me - the mantra of this admin, we will be more vulnerable to existential risks that once seemed only possible in some dystopian movie. For someone who loves his country and remembers more functional times, this entire episode is like a bad civics experiment. We’ve gone from hero generation to builders to prophets who know everything and are giving birth to a generation of cynics and nihilists. Great job.
The entire time reading this, I was thinking "what type of doctor is the author?" Answer: One that has nothing to do with epidemiology or infectious diseases. Which checks out with:
- The misleading framing of epidemiologic statistics
- Inaccurate claims of vitamin A being able to treat measles in people who are not deficient
- Incomplete overview of the risks of measles infection
- Conflating correlation with measles infection *causing* health benefits
- Mentioning vaccine induced measles as if it is something to be concerned about because it is so rare there are only isolated stories of it
If this were an assignment from one of my students, I'd give it a C
Why'd you pull that single sentence from Longmuir's 1962 piece?
"Happily, this era is ending. New and potent tools that promise effective control of measles are at hand... The importance of any disease as a public health problem must be gauged from many angles."
"Thus, in the United States measles is a disease whose importance is not to be measured by total days disability or number of deaths, but rather by human values and by the fact that tools are becoming available which promise effective control and early eradication."
Fox has never been opposed to vaccination. Rupert Murdoch's Mum funded the Murdoch Children's Research Institute (MCRI). They love vaccinations at that place and are part of a team to fight against vaccine hesitancy.
Energy is the capacity to do work… mister “truth seeker” a person who believes is healing by waving hands over someone’s body is not going to give accurate information and is definitely not a reliable source. Thats the point “truth seeker”
I held a Twitter space providing history of measles and known therapeutics being recommended by respected physicians, to request in the event of a positive diagnosis.
I interviewed Dr Richard Bartlett last year who was seeing lots of measles cases during the 2025 outbreak in Texas. It was his opinion that we are not experiencing “The Brady Bunch” American version of measles, but rather what appears to be a Third World country version that likely walked over the southern border during the mass invasion of the Biden/Harris administration, and therefore parents need to be prepared to request prescriptions like:
✔️Prophylactic antibiotic coverage to prevent secondary bacterial infection
&
✔️Budesonide for nebulization
In addition to supplementation with cod, liver oil/vitamin A and vitamin C and vitamin D and the typical standard of Care recommended by pediatricians.
Presently, as you’re aware, American standard of care only list:
Hydration, fever and pain control, rest and nutritional support, respiratory monitoring, treatment of complications, vitamin A for children, hospitalization when necessary, airborne isolation, public-health reporting, no routine antiviral therapy.”
Modern medicine is based on fear. Fear sells things, plain and simple ... whether vaccines for illnesses which are self-limiting or antibiotics for non-life threatening diseases or mood changing pills that are impossible to discontinue.
Just a dairy vet here, but the immune system can withstand many challenges, even in herds of animals IF provided with; fresh air, sunshine, fresh clean water, species appropriate diet, and clean dry bedding. That's the true basis of immunity, regardless of species.
Huh. If childhood nutrition is so important, why isn't that a public health priority? We seem far more concerned that corn and sugar cereals have natural dyes and that we need to punish poor kids by giving them even less access to healthy foods. Hell, the US government even canceled a program that helped farmers sell their produce to schools. Get back to us when you have something other than useless talk.
In order to strengthen the immune system and protect against disease people should know:
Injecting non-nutritive substances , which do not belong in the human bloodstream... is a major STRESS! In order for the body to heal , all stress should be removed. The natural Immune system has to work harder to remove a lab-created product, which can severely damage the immune system; as the only thing which belongs in the bloodstream are nutrients to nourish the organs, glands and cells...providing energy and good health.
Good article. How can we get this article in the Washington Post, New York Times, etc. One of the problems is that the new doctors are not educated to this history as well as what truly happened with the polio vaccine. I also understand that a few of the measles deaths were not caused by measles. We still have censorship of the truth in this country.
Some accutate information here from the highly educated doc.
Unfortutately there is this non science: "Measles is an acute respiratory infection caused by a virus" The problem is no "virus" has ever been proven to exist via Koch's well formulated postulates. There is zero isolation so its impossible to prove causation.
The "virus" storyline is the setup for vaxs, an endless # of them.
That exactly causes the measles syndrome remains elusive as Sasquatch.
The best educated peeps are also the most indoctrinated public parrots.
Concluding along the lines of prevention and or amelioration via nutrition is accurate
You will excuse me, but if the measles is caused by a virus how can one say that the decline in measles deaths wasn't due to antibiotics. You are joking, right?
Besides, your reflection doesn't just apply to measles but to all infectious diseases, that is, they haven't disappeared thanks to vaccines but because of living conditions, sanitation, drinking water, housing, nutrition, hygiene, etc.
Although your article is not an opinion but a real fact, the media will keep worshiping the golden calf of vaccines as a result of the bribes from the corrupt pharmaceutical industry

Yes. No. no. Next question from the man with the tinfoil pith helmet.

Thanks again for your well written article
You just made the case for engineered virulence...
The idea it walked over the border is just a hypothesis.
Airborne isolation?? what could that possibly entail?
A N95 mask in the sky?? For particles said to be 1000x smaller?
Lets be crystal clear. No one, especially the experts, has the slightest
clue what causes these "viral" syndromes.
Check points, on how to treat the symptoms
The idea of secondary infections is just that.
Now about that "virus" etiology
Lets the best educated make the case for existence of the
Measles "virus" or any other "virus" listening!!!

Most outbreaks begin when an unvaccinated American travels to a country were measles is endemic, and returns home infected. Traditionally, these have been quite limited, because of our high vaccination rates - they burn out quickly. Not so much any more.
And for what it's worth, just about every country in Latin America has higher childhood MMR vaccination rates than the US, as do many "third world" countries; https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/countries-with-the-highest-measles-vaccination-rates.html
