[quote=Anonymous]For those who think vaccination should be left up to individual choice, this is where you put babies and children at risk who are too young to be fully vaccinated.

A mother gave birth at a TX hospital but it was not realized until she was in active labor that she had measles. With a disease that is as contagious as measles - airborne, lingers in the air for hours after the infected person has departed, everyone in that shared unit airspace (which depends on how the HVAC is designed) or even admitted to the same waiting room, triage room, delivery room, within a couple hours, or in a room that shares airspace even if divided by walls, is at risk. On an L&D unit, that means newborns who are too young to get the vaccine.

Multiple newborn babies are getting IV immunoglobulin to protect them because of their exposure.
