Measles has spread to where I am at. Other than a mask/Vaccine, what else can help protect against it?
I have no real trust in my local community (theres quite a few anti-vaccine people here).
You're viewing a single thread.
Measles is the most infectious virus we know of. Contagion is measured by how many people the average patient will infect. Covid was a 4, measles is 18.
Anti vaxxers really fucking shit up
pro-vaxxers as well who stopped masking against covid
Well that's terrifying.
Just to add to the terror, measles can strip away previously held immunities. Had chicken pox as a child? If you get (and survive) measles you might get chicken pox again!
