A case study! And a great point for us to remember: "One may think that parents who choose not to vaccinate their children impose risks only on their own family. However, the highest rates of measles infection in recent outbreaks have occurred in children under one-year of age; these are children too young to receive the vaccine. Parents who choose not to vaccinate their own children are putting other children at risk."
A great article with lots of key facts, important information and credible, evidence-based recommendations. The one external article linked to was supposed to document the death erroneously attributed to measles vaccination. But that explanation was not satisfying; it merely says that medical review showed it was not related to the vaccination. But it doesn’t state the real cause of death, which would be more convincing.

Thanks. And as an aside, I almost put the words "case study" in the title! : )
