all 5 of my children had measles and they are now in their 50’s. Big deal

You're right..your kids didn't die, most don't...but the ten kids across town from you did....they're dead....oh well, not my concern...

When my kids were young, there was no measles vaccine. All the kids I knew had them and not one of the died...They all had mumps and chicken pox also. My daughter had scarlet fever but they had penicillin by then. Now when I was a small child, certain children’s diseases put your house under quarantine. Doctors posted the sign on the front door of the house...the only one I remember is my dad could not come in the house for 4 days when the doctor came and took down the sign. The disease most people dreaded was their child getting polio.....no vaccine for that and it was a killer and crippler of thousands of children. Look up Iron Lung and get some insite on the polio killer....You do have a great smarmy vocabulary...some ignorance also.
