The Anti-Vax Bodycount Continues

Four children under the age of five have been hospitalized with measles here in Minneapolis in the last two weeks...


The pseudoscientific fraud of Jenny McCarthy, Andrew Wakefield, and others continues to afflict those who cannot protect themselves from their parents' misguided fear.  Measles is highly contagiousMeasles is a serious illnessMeasles can killMeasles is preventable.
