Each year, 30 million children contract measles and about 500,000 die from it. Measles is a major cause of child mortality in developing countries because effective immunization programs are not in place. In response to outbreaks, Doctors Without Borders conducts mass vaccination campaigns targeting all children between 6 months and 15 years of age.
Hope you like adding to the total here in the U.S., despite an effective immunization program being in place, Shoemaker & Associates.
