Measles is one of the most contagious of the vaccine-preventable diseases, meaning to prevent sustained transmission, it's necessary to maintain the highest levels of immunity.

may want to know the average percent in decrease of deaths. To name a few for instance the measles vaccine has decreased childhood deaths from measles by 74% (5). New England Journal of Medicine July issue study found that 80% of children under 5 years of age who has contracted whooping cough had been fully vaccinated (3). In more recent outbreaks among isolation, primitive people, the death rate among measles cases average 20-30%. The death rates can seem overwhelming when people think about…

The study went like this; 12 children were brought to a hospital and given the MMR, Measles, Mumps, and Rubella, vaccination and later 8 of these children were diagnosed with Autism!
