5,122 deaths from measles in Ireland from 1922 to 1988, peaking at 519 deaths in 1926. Devastatingly 4,134 of those deaths (82%) were of little children aged 0-4 years old. Since MMR introduced in 1988, just 3 deaths of children from measles in the last 36 years. MMR works 🙏

This morning Uganda announced a new Ebola outbreak. The last time there was an Ebola outbreak in Uganda, the CDC worked with the WHO on helping end it. But now, the CDC can’t even talk to the WHO. I repeat, again and again, this is pure stupidity that will only hurt us.
