What useful details are you looking for? There’s also a thread in the Health forum if that helps.
Co-morbidities being the big one.
Measles has been studied and tracked for a very long time. This is not like Covid where we're only just figuring out what types of comorbidities might cause complications or death. It is already known which populations are at higher risk, and it is already known that measles can cause serious life-long complications and death even in healthy people. So tell me, why do you care what the child's comorbidities were? How will that impact your actions? Alllll the data is at your fingertips. Or better yet ask your doctor's advice.
I hope people like you aren't thinking "this kid probably had leukemia so I really don't need to worry about my non-leukemia kids."
We can't save everyone. There is a child dying in a car accident every day, nobody cares. Nobody cares to make our suburbs less car dependent, to make it safer to get around. Nobody cares how many kids die of neglect or abuse or suicides (a LOT more than Measles). Why is this story making headlines and so many discussions? It's purely political. These outbreaks happened before and you hardly remember unless someone brings it to your retinas.
It's making headlines because there is already a known solution in place, accessible to everyone in the country. Not so for the other things you mentioned.
That's how the news works.

The releases said the child was otherwise healthy. Because healthy children have in fact been killed by measles. It’s what makes this disease so particularly awful.

There has been so much gaming of the term healthy that we need specifics these days.

You can't feel sorry for the KID who was hospitalized and died? The KID didn't make the decision not to be vaccinated. Go dust off your humanity.
Not PP but everyone here feels sorry for this kid and the other kids who are sick. The kids aren’t the ones who are ignoring doctors and science.
