The Importance of Vaccinations

Vancouver, WA is experiencing an outbreak of measles this week. Apparently someone from outside the country came into contact with a group of unvaccinated children, who then went to public places, like Ikea and a professional basketball game. While one of the patients was actually immunized according to the Reddit thread, the best research indicates that vaccinations work and this case is a powerful reminder of how quickly measles can spread. Please vaccinate your children.
