[quote=Anonymous]https://publichealth.jhu.edu/2025/what-to-know-about-measles-and-vaccines Information about measles from Johns Hopkins Is measles dangerous? Yes. Here in the U.S., about 1 in 5 unvaccinated people will require hospitalization from measles. In 2024, that rate was even higher—about 40% of people with measles were hospitalized. Measles can also lead to more severe issues, including pneumonia, encephalitis, brain damage, and pregnancy complications. Complications of measles can occur in anyone, including in healthy children and adults. Scientists have found that measles wipes out the body’s memory of bacteria and viruses. This weakens your immune system, making you more likely to get sick from other diseases. This effect can last for years." Another thing to consider: if you or your child has recently had COVID, your immune system may be weaker than normal.[/quote]
