[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The child had pneumonia, RSV and measles. The child's death was declared due to measles after the hospital staff vaccinated the child while hospitalized for pneumonia.

NOPE! have seen lots of bot posts and astroturfing posts about this that get picked up and repeated by people like you. It also does not make any logical sense based on the known incubation period for measles which is 11-12 days AFTER exposure!

You basically saw a post on X and believed it without verifying. I am embarrassed for you.  :oops: [/quote]

Right?? You can't get vaccinated FOR something after you have it. Imagine being dumb enough to believe that. [/quote]

It makes no sense why a child admitted with RSV and pneumonia would be given MMR shot.  Is there community notes, can't someone verify this to put an end to the rumors?[/quote]

Texas themselves reported the death was “from measles”. Measles pneumonia is a thing, as is measles encephalitis. It’s amazing how people are trying to discount this virus as if it doesn’t have extraordinary consequences that kill children. It kills babies, it kills kids with cancer, and it kills unvaccinated children who were previously healthy. [/quote]

This is like how people with AIDS die from pneumonia, not AIDS. Yes they don't technically die [i]from AIDS[/i], they die from complications they got [i]because they have AIDS.[/i][/quote]

CDC:
Post-exposure prophylaxis for measles
People exposed to measles who cannot readily show that they have adequate presumptive evidence of immunity against measles should be offered post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP). Public health officials can help identify eligible persons, assess any contraindications, and weigh benefits.

There are two types of PEP for measles. To potentially provide protection or modify the clinical course of disease among susceptible persons, administer one of these:

MMR vaccine, if administered within 72 hours of initial measles exposure.
Immunoglobulin (IG), if administered within 6 days of exposure. The recommended dose for intramuscular immunoglobulin (IMIG) is 0.5mL/kg, regardless of the contact’s immune status.
Don't administer MMR vaccine and IG simultaneously. This practice invalidates the vaccine.
