ai generated text
There have been two reported measles-related deaths in the southwestern United States. Both deaths occurred in Texas and involved unvaccinated children.
For comparison, 16 outbreaks were reported during 2024 and 69% of cases (198 of 285) were outbreak-associated.
The child was receiving treatment for complications of measles while hospitalised.
We are deeply saddened to report that a school-aged child who was recently diagnosed with measles has passed away.
This unfortunate event underscores the importance of vaccination.
These kids should get vaccinated – that's how you prevent people from dying of measles.
This is the epitome of an absolute needless death.
