Dr. Adam Ratner: Low Number of Vaccinated Children ‘Is a Recipe for Measles’
‘It’s more contagious than flu, more contagious than Covid, more contagious than Ebola’
EXCERPT:
RATNER: "It is very alarming and, sadly, predictable. This is, as you alluded to, a trend that's been in the works since before Covid, but really was supercharged during Covid. Measles is the most contagious disease that we know. It’s more contagious than flu, more contagious than Covid, more contagious than Ebola. And it — the reason that we need such a high level of vaccination in the population to control measles is because it is so very contagious. And so when you see those vaccination levels in kindergartners dropping down below 95%, and in some places, like in Gaines County, Texas, where they're at about 80%, that is a recipe for a measles outbreak."
