Not vaccinating is the greater risk- it's that simple.

As of April 19th, there has been 626 cases of the measles spread across 21 different states. This is the largest number SINCE 2000 WHEN THE VIRUS WAS ERADICATED.

A meme a day keeps the doctor away (and so do vaccinations)

Saw this on snapchat today... #StopAntivaxers2019

This is my son’s rapid decline with #WhoopingCough (too young to be vaccinated).

Day 1 in hospital he was OK, just tired & not breastfeeding enough.

By day 5, he was gone 💔

There is no cure for whooping cough, only prevention (including pregnancy vaccination!)

We must vaccinate to maintain herd immunity to protect babies around the nation who are too young to recieve the M.M.R. vaccine.

To be fully effective, a vaccine needs herd immunity — where enough people are vaccinated, that they can protect those who aren't.

Achieving herd immunity for measles means a 95% rate of vaccination.

A disease that was once eliminated is now back due to our nation's lack of vaccinations. #VaccinesSaveLives

So far in 2019, the U.S. has confirmed 555 measles cases, according to the CDC.

"We are on track to have one of the highest numbers of cases of measles reported since we eliminated the disease in the year 2000," a CDC senior advisor for vaccines says. https://t.co/CEraoQCkPO

We cannot underestimate the contagious nature of the measles virus. #VaccinateYourKids

A common misbelief is that the measles vaccine is linked to autism. That is due to a false report by a fraudulent doctor wanting to make money.

Imagine the year is 1950 and everyone you know and love is dying from the measles... if only there was a vaccination for such a dangerous and contagious virus #throwback
