This out break of measles across the U.S. is something to take seriously. While some of the symptoms include a high fever, a runny nose, and a cough, there are vastly more dire results; The World Health Organization (WHO) says the “measles is a highly contagious, serious airborne disease caused by a virus that can lead to severe complications and death.”
While the measles is very serious, it’s also very preventable. Measles can be prevented with the MMR vaccine, which actually protects you from measles, mumps, and rubella. Right now, the CDC recommends the first dose of the vaccine between 12 – 15 months old, and the second dose between 4 – 6 years old.
