Vacuna contra el sarampión es fundamental para protegerse en medio del brote nacional, advierte médico de Arkansas

  • Measles is experiencing a resurgence around the world, including outbreaks in countries frequented by Australian travelers such as the US, Thailand, and Indonesia, with cases also reported in Yemen, Pakistan, India, Ethiopia, Romania, and Afghanistan.
  • Due to the rise in measles cases across the country, health officials, including those in the Bay Area and Metro Public Health Department, are urging individuals to get vaccinated against this highly contagious virus, which can spread through the air when an infected person coughs or sneezes.
  • The measles vaccine, typically given to babies at 12 months and again at 4 or 6 years old, is proven safe and effective, with one dose being 93% effective and a second dose protecting up to 97%.
  • Dr. Robert Hopkins warns that measles can lead to serious complications like pneumonia, damage to the immune system, and recurrent neurological diseases, emphasizing the importance of vaccination to protect oneself, as stated by Dr. Sanmi Areola, "The best way to protect yourself against an infection is by preventing it in the first place."
  • While no cases have been reported in Arkansas at the moment, there have been 309 confirmed cases across 18 states, and in Australia, despite eliminating endemic measles in 2014, outbreaks still occur, with 13 cases recorded in both New South Wales and Victoria in the first three months of 2025, underscoring the need for vaccination.
