Statistics show that close to one out of ten young people in the United States have not been vaccinated against measles - this highly infectious and - unfortunately in some cases - deadly disease. Doctors have been repeatedly stressing the need to avoid unnecessary risks, and health care officials are determined to drastically decrease the number of measles cases in the years to come, however occasional outbreaks bitterly remind the global community that - at least in some parts of the world - measles still is one of the main vaccine-preventable causes of childhood mortality. In order to find out more about this infectious disease, its symptoms, complications and vaccines - read this book.
