CJ,
What chart is that?
A chart that shows the death rate due to measles was one to two orders of magnitude higher in the early 1900's vs. the 1960's.

According to Broken Cuck, that means measles was a "non-factor." It's completely meaningless, but the RuZZian asset is easily impressed by graphs that look like "proof" to him.

By the way, RFQ Jr. hasn't had a chance to "dewokify" this data yet ...

History of Measles (CDC)

A vaccine became available in 1963. In the decade before, nearly all children got measles by the time they were 15 years old. It is estimated 3 to 4 million people in the United States were infected each year. Among reported measles cases each year, an estimated:
  • 400 to 500 people died
  • 48,000 were hospitalized
  • 1,000 suffered encephalitis (swelling of the brain)

The posted you responded to dimwit.
I have to see it before I can comment on it

Perhaps you had a near death experience with the sniffles?
