As measles cases continue to rise around the globe, the World Health Organization warns it’s a signal that other disease outbreaks could soon follow.
The surging number of measles cases around the world is a stark warning sign that outbreaks of other vaccine-preventable diseases could be next, the World Health Organization warned Friday.
“It’s crucial to understand why measles matters,” said Dr. Kate O’Brien, director of the WHO’s Department of Immunization, Vaccines and Biologicals. “Its high transmissibility means that even small drops in vaccine coverage can trigger outbreaks, like a fire alarm going off when smoke is detected first.”
That is, measles is often the first disease to pop up when vaccination rates overall drop.
you’re on the right track, but i think it’s even stupider than that. all that really needs to happen is to somehow get it through their empty cinderblock skulls that measles is actually even more contagious than gayness and woke, and that vaccines love jesus and guns
but still, good luck with any of this
