The message is loud and clear, the measles is not chicken pox. Do not expose your kids to it. Tell your kids to stay away from other kids who are coughing.

    All my kids got MMR so… They’re good? Are the vast majority of children not vaccinated against measles?

      A large part of the efficacy of vaccines comes from everyone around you also being mostly immune. If there are giant holes in the shield, everyone near those holes becomes more vulnerable. The vaccines can be overcome by the disease if enough viral load is present.
