Analysis of Texas measles outbreak shows just how dangerous virus is

Title: Analysis of Texas measles outbreak shows just how dangerous virus is For years, anti-vaccine Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and his zealous followers have downplayed measles as "just a rash" and falsely claimed that "Measles outbreaks have been fabricated to create fear."
