• With all of the recent Media hype regarding a measles outbreak at Disneyland, I thought I would share this article that sheds a little more true scientific light on the subject.
• The symptoms and course of the disease is as follows according to the Mayo clinic:
• Measles typically begins with a mild to moderate fever, often accompanied by a persistent cough, runny nose, inflamed eyes (conjunctivitis) and sore throat. This relatively mild illness may last two or three days.
• The rash consists of small red spots, some of which are slightly raised. Spots and bumps in tight clusters give the skin a splotchy red appearance. The face breaks out first, particularly behind the ears and along the hairline.
Over the next few days, the rash spreads down the arms and trunk, then over the thighs, lower legs and feet. At the same time, fever rises sharply, often as high as 104 to 105.8 F (40 to 41 C). The measles rash gradually recedes, fading first from the face and last from the thighs and feet.
While everyone should have the right to make up their own mind on which vaccinations if any they feel are appropriate, I think this article shows that there is a lot more to the vaccination story than what the pharmaceutical and government agencies are sharing. I don’t believe that forcing more and more doses of vaccination on us is the answer. Hope you enjoy the article.

A report says that visitors to Disneyland got measles and infected other people in California, Washington, and Colorado, yet the source has not been identified.
