it most certainly does until YOU can prove otherwise.

run a fist or two up yours.
You have ZERO proof and illegal alien caused this outbreak.
you are sick

A child has died. All because an unsupported and unsubstantiated conspiracy theory. I know that does not like science, but to allow a child to die because they do not like science is unforgiveable. These people bloviate their so-called non-existent, "Right To Life" and children die of a easily preventable childhood illness. Pure naked hypocrisy.

you are sick

And you have no proof they didnt

 

[M14 Shooter]

Because a child died for no reason.

There was a reason. He caught the measles.
The US has -16- measles outbreaks in 2024.

There will be more and more if the anti-vaccine crowd continues to grow.

If they don’t get measles, they don’t get complications of measles. It’s like saying he didn’t die because he was pushed off a roof. He died because he hit the ground.

Your ask was how we have improved our treatment of measles. The improvement of treating the complications which actually cause the problems is the improvement then. You don't get to have it both ways.

This is what you said:

You did indeed. Encephalitis is not common.

but Pneumonia is correct? And if encephalitis is rare it's less of a worry. Again you don't get to have it both ways.

Most people who get the flu don’t get severe complications either.

The same can be said of measles. The vast majority of people who get the measles don't have complications severe or otherwise.

Guess how we prevent complications of measles? Prevent them from getting measles.

That's how you want to treat it. It's not how the people who don't want to vaccinate want to treat it. You don't get to dictate to other people what they are or aren't going to do medically.

I trust the vaccine because it’s obvious it works extremely well.

So does prevention and treatment of the complications of infection like pneumonia and encephalitis.

I question YOU in your claim that we can effectively treat measles. It is a claim that you have not been able to back up. How do we prevent kids with measles from getting encephalitis? Do tell.

We have effective treatments for pneumonia and encephalitis which is treatment of measles by your logic at the start of this post. The odd part is your blind belief on one hand and hard disbelief no the other of the same entity.

Seeing as how encephalitis is an inflammatory condition use of anti inflammatory is likely used.

We’ve had anti-inflammatory for a long time.

But it’s clear you don’t actually know what you’re talking about. Thanks.

What's clear is you don't want to hear anything other than what you want to hear. Here's the cool thing. You are free to get any and all the vaccines you want. Not sure why you are so against other people being afforded the right to make a different decision than you.

Just a dose of reality.

A kid died because of measles in 2025 despite all our medical technology.

Thing is, we haven’t really made any advancements in treatment of measles. Like a lot of viral illnesses, treatment is supportive.

LUBBOCK, Texas (AP) — A child who was not vaccinated has died from measles in West Texas, the first death in an outbreak that began late last month and the first from measles in the U.S. since 2015.

A Texas child who was not vaccinated has died of measles, a first for the US in a decade

A child who was not vaccinated has died from measles in West Texas. It's the first death in an outbreak that began late last month and the first from measles in the U.S. since 2015.

apnews.com

The death was a “school-aged child who was not vaccinated” and had been hospitalized last week, the Texas Department of State Health Services said Wednesday in a statement. Lubbock health officials also confirmed the death, but neither agency provided more details. A news conference is scheduled for Wednesday afternoon.

Covenant Children’s Hospital in Lubbock didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment, nor did Texas Gov. Greg Abbott’s office.

They refused to mention whether it was a child of immigration criminals, so its death is not our responsibility.

360 kids die each year drowned in their pool. Should we outlaw pools?

5000 kids die each year from choking should we outlaw solid foods?

Untold cost and death from obesity. Should we outlaw hoho's and mandate exercise? Restrict caloric intake and mandate healthy diets for people especially children?

One kid dies with measles and it's somehow an indictment of every person who chooses to make a decision you wouldn't make.


BTW more kids got the measles last year than this year. Almost 2k kids got the measles in 2019. Odd we weren't having this discussion then.

If there were a vaccine that stopped kids from choking on food, wouldn’t we want all kids to get that?

We are having the discussion now because RFK Jr is a total lunatic and placed in charge of HHS.

Is it possible that the kid was an illegal alien?

The only choice liberals want you to have is to kill your unborn child or not.

I wouldnt force a child to take it no.

We are having the discussion now because RFK Jr is a total lunatic and placed in charge of HHS.

The decision to not vaccinate all these school aged children (6 and older) was made long before anyone knew RFK jr's name let alone his questions on the safety studies regarding vaccines. Try again.

 

[Marener]

Not the question I asked. Try to have an honest discussion.

RFK Jr has been promoting vaccine craziness for a decade. More to the point, we are talking about this because it highlights the insanity of having a quack like RFK Jr in charge of HHS.

It’s the crux of this entire discussion. Whether or not you or I think someone should take a vaccine is irrelevant.

I’m sure the Mennonites who have never vaccinated their children dont give a shit what RFKjr thinks. That said RFK can think whatever he wants if no one knows what that is not sure how it has any effect. Current vaccine hesitancy which has zero to do with this current stint of measles infections was caused by health officials lying through their teeth over and over during COVID including about tne COVID vaccine

 

[Marener]

Of course what we think is relevant. It’s sad to think otherwise.

Your attempts to evade the issue are likely indicative of your unwillingness to face the reality of the situation.

But we do know what he thinks. He thinks that vaccines cause autism and are unsafe. He thinks that measles is no big deal and that outbreaks aren’t because of vaccine hesitancy.

This outbreak highlights how absolutely out of touch with reality RFK Jr is. His placement at HHS represents a serious concern for people who want healthcare policy to be grounded in reality.

This is getting serious. I hope RFK has his eyes on Texas. The people who began this are unvacinated due to religious reasons. So now kids are dying....for religious reasons....

. . . and that is as much their right, as the left bleevs abortion is.

The political integrity of the family and their beliefs cannot be violated by the state in a free nation.
