The CDC reported that this year we have reported a higher rate of the measles outbreak, breaking a record since 2000. The outbreaks have affected over 600 people in 22 states, that's an alarming rate. Many states like NY are banning unvaccinated people in public places. The CDC is planning a full campaing to gain support for vaccines.

Measles are a preventable disease that is passed through the air, the only reason people are not vaccinating themselves and their children is because they believe vaccines are the cause of autism. these are very stupid reasons for not vaccinating your child honestly.

This relates to the columbian exchange and how the europeans exchaged diseases that wiped out many of the native americans because they didn't have the immune system to handle something that big but also there was no development of vaccines. Because of vaccines we have developed a stronger immune system.
