    No. It's not. The MMR vaccine provides immunity without the risk of pneumonia, encephalopathy, and death.https://twitter.com/Alexand27506822/status/1127200698372726784 …

    I caught the measles and mumps, I stayed indoors, got bored. I would let my kids catch it if it turned up in my area. That's the best way to get vaccinated is to catch it.

        Well, I never got any bad side effects, no fevers, no vomiting, no high or low temperatures, no nausea no nothing, that was for both mumps and measles. I guess I'm one of those lucky ones. I only had the rashes and spots which made me look like the 101 Dalmatians & boredom in bed

        Alexander joined Twitter this month and sprinkled numbers after their name for a used name. I'm betting troll or bot. At the very least, fishy.

        Are you jealous because I wasn't sick from getting the measles or mumps? I'm one of the uncommon lucky ones to not get sick from it, I did have have the spots and rashes tho but no fevers, no high or low temperatures, no nausea, no feeling vomit.

        Today yes but in those days, we endured and we survived altho boredom set in staying in the bedroom for days on end. Wifi, internet and Playstation didn't exist back then nor did atari. Today's lot are a bunch of molly cottled panzies afraid of everything.

        Russia has nothing to do with it. They have a universal Healthcare that provides vaccines for free to their citizens unlike America who let's their citizens die from not being able to afford asthmatic medicines and diabetic injections.

        I didn't get any of those things you proposed. Just spots and rashes and lumps but none of the ill effects from it. I was more bored staying in the bedroom looking out the window wanting to go outside to play. I was one of the few lucky ones, I guess that's why I'm overconfident

        Overconfident is a good word for extrapolating your experience to everyone else when discussing a deadly disease. 1-2 per 1000 die from measles, 1 in 20 get pneumonia. To downplay the severity is dangerous and could hurt children. Please stop. #VaccinesSaveLives

        Unfortunately, that way comes with the added benefit of an ICU stay on a ventilator, but if that’s how you want your kids to spend their summer vacation, have fun!
