Guest guest Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 Don't know about the recent outbreak, but I do know that I had the measels as a child, and I was fine. The MMR was new (I am 30), and our family doctor advised my mom to NOT allow us to get it. Where are those kind of docs now? So, I caught measels, mumps and chickenpox ( obviously not all at once), and am fine! No long term damage that I'm aware of:) Susie On Apr 12, 2008, at 8:46 PM, " Tara " <tkrey@...> wrote: Hello all! Just wondering if anyone has any " stories " on the measles. I've never had the measles (darnit! I wish I woul have!), and we do not vax. I'm curious if anyone knows whether or not these reported cases of measles around the country (especially in Milwaukee, WI) were people who were vaccinated or not. My guess is that the media will say that the people were not vaccinated to scare people into doing so, but I wonder how true the statements really will be. From my understanding of the measles...it seems to me that a healthy child living in sanitary conditions and eating a healthy diet will do just fine if they were to get the measles.

Guest guest Posted August 26, 2008 Report Share Posted August 26, 2008 Good point. It's never made sense to me why they don't send ALL kids home in an outbreak if they're so concerned about kids getting sick. Think I'll ask that next time. After all, they don't think the vaxes work well enough without everyone getting them, so isn't everyone at risk regardless?

Guest guest Posted August 26, 2008 Report Share Posted August 26, 2008 AMEN, and Winnie!!! An outbreak...hah! And you are so right...who cares about 1 in 150 kids with autism. And isn't it something like 1 in 4 kids with autism in the UK.

Guest guest Posted September 23, 2008 Report Share Posted September 23, 2008 No worries. Measles = morbilli, with Koplik spots in mouth German measles = rubella, congenital rubella syndrome is usually caused by a dietary lack of vitamin A in the pregnant woman. Can't get a serious hold in a healthy person. Vaccines have not reduced the number. Abortion has reduced the numbers! Also It's as Winnie said - they rename it to " prove " that vaccination works. You can probably find the relevant documents at the whaleto site. From: <mynamemommy@...> Subject: Measles Vaccinations Date: Tuesday, September 23, 2008, 3:56 PM Coming from an over vaxed family I had never before seen measles- it took a very long time to figure out the illness... So our 17 mth old has measles, complete with diahrea, white spots in her mouth, swollen glands, etc. I'm prego- have heard dangerous things about exposure to measles and unborn child. Can any of you share some info about this? Oh, 17 mth old is fine- just ill/cranky/etc. Rash is only bad in diaper area because if diahrea- she has sensitive skin.

Guest guest Posted September 23, 2008 Report Share Posted September 23, 2008 christina, i don't know about any proven diaper area remedy for a measles stricken baby, but if you aren't using cloth diapers already maybe now's a good time to start. diaper service a luxury, not a necessity. also maybe try making your own baby wipes (try cutting up some rags for the wipe)? the web has many great websites that spell out recipes, but simply essential oils of tea trea & lavender w/ water ( & maybe olive oil & natural baby soap-try dr. bronner's) works well. i've read conflicting things about corn starch in the diaper area, but maybe give it a go if you read it to be beneficial. good luck, & i hope your baby gets better soon. have a healthy pregnancy!

So our 17 mth old >has measles, complete with diahrea, white spots in her mouth, swollen >glands, etc. Where do you live? There is no way to be absolutely sure is measles just by what you have described..........maybe. There are many 'things' with rashes and diarrhea. The spots in the mouth are suspicious but they usually aren't white. White spots sound more like canker sores. Koplik's spots are small, red, irregularly-shaped spots with blue-white centers found inside the mouth. Koplik's spots usually appear 1 to 2 days before the measles rash > I'm prego- have heard dangerous things about exposure to >measles and unborn child. Can any of you share some info about this? There aren't problems with measles (rubeola) usually (you are thinking of rubella - 3-day measles) >Oh, 17 mth old is fine- just ill/cranky/etc. Rash is only bad in >diaper area because if diahrea- she has sensitive skin. If there are >any topical things I can do for that I'd be glad to hear it. I'll send some remedy info - doesn't matter if it is labeled measles or not - look at the whole symptom picture And calendula cream is helpful to soothe while remedy is working. Remind me where you live. Look at all the remedies I will give you relating to measles (even though it may not be measles - the remedies are based on symptom pictures) and diarrhea and find the one that matches best and includes most of the symptoms - one remedy.

Guest guest Posted June 23, 2010 Report Share Posted June 23, 2010 I'm curious how many of you have actually had measles like I had. I guess I'm asking how many old fogies like me are in this group. No one commented when I mentioned about my catching measles in first grade, 1963, first year of mass vaccination for measles of American schoolchildren. With every child in my school having live measles virus in their system from mandatory vaccinations that year, I'm thinking I probably caught it from one of the vaccinated kids. My case of measles was mild (but chicken pox at the same time, they thought), and no one caught it from me, not my four year old brother or even my one-year-old sister who got right up in my face to ask me if I'd " got em moosles. " Neither of them ever caught measles. I HEAR measles is harsher now than it used to be. Why would that be, if true? Has the disease mutated, or is it because we no longer have any natural immunity to it from being exposed to the actual disease? Relatedly, are our immune systems weaker overall from not getting the actual disease challenges they used to get? Anyway, I can't tell anyone else what to do, but the scare tactics about measles seem ridiculous to me. A kid COULD get encephalitis or any of the things measles itself could cause from the vaccine itself. Having read " Silent Witnesses " volumes I and II, written by the " Lancet 12 " UK parents who observed their children regress into autism after MMR vaccination, I think I'd take my chances on measles! (These books, edited by , can be ordered from www.cryshame.uk.co and www.slingshotpublications.com, where you can also read great essays by . That's how I came to be on Dr. Wakefield's side. Of course now you can read his book, " Callous Disregard, " just out last month from Skyhorse Publishing Co. (NY 2010), www.callousdisregard.com, and Amazon.com. This isn't all that can be said, of course, on either side. There's the public health side of it, where they try to make you feel guilty because you might be spreading measles if you don't vaccinate your children. But if you break out in measles, you actually get the live virus out of your system (and build natural immunity). Whereas, some of the kids with autism have been found to have live measles virus still inside them, causing brain and gut inflammation, where their only exposure was from the vaccine. Gosh it's late. I don't know if this is useful to anyone here or if it's just preaching to the choir. Just some of my thoughts. Christie W. At 05:29 PM 6/22/2010, Roberg wrote: > > >Classic!

Guest guest Posted June 23, 2010 Report Share Posted June 23, 2010 I might have had measles. I got the symptoms but my mum said it 'must have been rubella' because I was vaccinated with single measles shot, but I'd already had rubella so I find that hard to believe. I had no after-effects from whatever it was. I also had mumps and chickenpox.My mother-in-law had measles and is also fine although she did have very minor hearing loss in one ear afterwards so turns the TV up loud, but other than that is normal.It's more severe now because people get it when they're teenagers and I was told by the UK DOH that the encephalitis rate for teenage and adult measles is 1 in 200 which is a lot higher than if you get it as a child. They also get atypical measles syndrome which is worse and can make you sick for 3 months according to medicine net info I've read. > > > > > > > > So our Ped just sent out this email: > > > > "We were just informed Friday that there is a > confirmed Measles case in ville.

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2010 Report Share Posted December 12, 2010 Yearly outbreaks? It sure seems the vaccine isn't working if there are yearly outbreaks! And I've heard of one outbreak in my area in the 20 years I've been paying attention. Where do you live?

Guest guest Posted December 13, 2010 Report Share Posted December 13, 2010 I live in Johannesburg, South Africa. The department of public health also goes to preschools with the free jab. When I asked one parent why they choose to vaccinate yearly for measles, I was told it is because the vaccine immunity only lasts a year. Yet, I hear that they don't visit the schools of developmentally challenged children because of the belief that vaccines may damage those kids further...duh? It would be nice if some one could culture the measles from the outbreaks to discover if it is infact a wild varity or iatrogenic....

Guest guest Posted February 26, 2011 Report Share Posted February 26, 2011 At 04:13 PM 2/26/2011, you wrote: Can anyone tell me why I read that after measles is contracted that pneumonia, bronchitis usually follow? hardly the talk of seriousness of diseases was increased after vaccines came out I was reading an article it said that not only is measles highly contagious, but also has a high % of complications. Is that right? UGH. What do you do if your child gets the measles? That's why I have the Childhood Diseases class to help all with this ;-) I know of no one who died of measles as a child in friends or family and we all go it My mother has no fear of it and she was a nurse also, born in 1925.
