RICH IN THOUGHT-The Anti-Vax Myth
Placeholder Image
A few weeks ago Disneyland appeared to be Ground Zero for a measles outbreak that led to 17 identified cases in the US. Since then, at last count, there are now over 120 confirmed cases of measles in the country, possibly due to “satellite” outbreaks as those persons returned home from “The Happiest Place on Earth.” This issue once again has stirred me to “What are they thinking?” and “How can people be so naïve?” as what I see as the cause of the outbreaks – parents not vaccinating their children. Now, I don’t claim to be a doctor, or even play one on TV, and I’m far from being popular enough or having the appropriate tact to get elected, but it seems our elected officials need to take heed from the knowledgeable medical community on the issue.
