First Measles death in Texas - Feb, 2025

I caught measles in the early ‘60s, and was very ill, I’m told. My late mother said I got it at a children’s party, and she knew who I got it from, too.

By the time my brother came along, they had a shot for it.

Quarantined! Measles!

Another outbreak, this time at Colorado City AZ and nearby parts of Utah. AIUI, that’s the location of an extreme LDS offshoot. Not too surprising it has low vaccination rates.
