    Especially since measles actually does long lasting harm to the immune system that it can take three years to recover from.https://twitter.com/RyanMarino/status/1098689553760698368 …

    Anyone who thinks measles infection is good for immunity is either uneducated, dishonest, or both, and should not be taken seriously regardless of whichever degree they include in their Twitter handle https://twitter.com/jorient/status/1097871508834181120 …

        So much so that “surviving” measles is a misnomer because all-cause mortality skyrockets

        The data behind this is so compelling but the anti-vaxxers would never understand or believe it.

        Add to @RyanMarino's tweet: And has never had the measles. At least not as a teen or an adult. I remember. After 2 years my hearing was up to about 75% of pre-infection level. Never got better.

        Not to mention putting the lives of literally every infant at risk (as well as the immunodeficient). It baffles me that anti-vaxxers & their advocates seem to have little regard for the lives of others.

        Prior to measles vaccination being developed my mother pregnant with my sister. Many cousins and family had measles and my mother exposed. My sister born with brain damage, hearing loss, other health issues requiring life long care. Vaccines saves lives AND prevent birth defects
