The disease remains severe. What we have now is ECMO, ventilators, a whole lot of pharma, and the ability to crack a kid’s head open so his swollen brain has somewhere to go. If you don’t mind dropping a couple of million, we can save your kid, too. No guarantees about what he’s going to be like after, though. |

We have a vaccine for measles, why do parents want their kids to suffer?
My first memory is the enormous pain from having mumps as a three year old. Then I had to be hospitalized with chicken pox. All pre vaccine availability, so when a measles vaccine was available I took it! |
+1 not a lot of illegals” at the March for Life IME |
Hey genius, why don't you go look up Subacute sclerosing panecephalopathy. The measles virus can mutate. It remains dormant for decades with zero.symptoms. Then all of the sudden it comes back in your 20s or 30s as a severe neurodegenerative disease that kills you via a slow, agonizing death. There are no cures or treatments for SSPE. It is almost universally fatal. And it overwhelmingly happens in individuals who were unvaccinated. You are literally playing with your child's life and gambling with the potential for a horrific death years from now because you listened to a brain worm addled mad man who isn't even a doctor. |
Yes, if you are not worried about hospitalization, damage to the immune system, complications like blindness etc. enough to vaccinate your child, read about that! A few years after infection, it sneaks up on you and kills you in a horrible horrible way. And there is nothing that can be done at that point.. |

The irony of going to a March for Life rally when you’re infecting people.
wtf is wrong with these idiots?? |
They only care about themselves and their feelings. Disgusting behavior for disgusting people. |
+1 this person is very ignorant. 11% of the people diagnosed with measles in 2025 were hospitalized, more than 1/10. Three of these people who had measles died last year! In 2025, even with modern medical care you are talking about the fatality rate was still 1/760 last year. |
Makes me so angry. These are needless deaths. Brought on by repudiation of one of the most amazing things science has ever produced because a conman wants to be president. |
I would say that individual states are partly at fault too by expanding vaccine exemptions and making them easier to request. |
|
Dr. Oz has decided to remember he has a medical license:
Maybe someone from this thread needs to update him on how the measles is just like a cold, or something dumb like that. |
The exemptions were of little consequence when measles was eradicated. It’s not anymore. It’s quite clear the virus is circulating widely in North America now. |
You don't get the latter without the former. If there were no stupid exemptions, the virus would not have gotten a toehold again. Thanks, MAHA. Are we winning yet. |
😳 I suppose not even [checks notes] malnourishment can prevent that. |

I am a recent surprise grandma and I am low key very very very concerned that his mother will have hesitations about vaccinations in general.
It's not my business or battle, though, and I'm just vastly relieved that my son sent me a text message saying he appreciates my staying apart during whatever emotional and psychological adjustment period he needs to go through. But that he has given "the little guy" a nickname and he is just going to try his best to use the resources he has access to to give "my son the best life possible" so, that's all good. But man, I just hope that includes vaccines |
