Baloney. From the CDC:
From 2001-2013, 28% of children younger than 5 years old who had measles had to be treated in the hospital.
For some children, measles can lead to:
Pneumonia (a serious lung infection)
Lifelong brain damage
Deafness
Death
(Mods, I know the rule is no links… but I believe this to be a serious enough issue [potential pikuach nefesh] that I am going to ask you to bend the rules and allow a link to the CDC website. Thank you.)
Sorry, they’ll have to Google it.
Based on that reasoning, let’s reintroduce smallpox as well. And why not let cholera, polio and rubella run rampant too? Who are we to think we can outwit Him who created these diseases?
