Exhibit A to this narrative: a child has died as a result of measles. And yet that claim is not fully verified, as Dr. Brian Hooker, in a fact sheet published earlier this week in Children's Health Defense, points out here.

What is certain is the death of a child is always tragic. We pray for the family and hope that the child's death is fully investigated and that the facts, whatever they may be, are presented to the public.

While many of the measles cases are occurring in what we are told were unvaccinated children, there are also reports that some of the cases involve people who have been vaccinated. In fact, there will also be some people who develop measles following vaccination, which this article, "Can You Get Measles If You Are Vaccinated?" – grudgingly concedes.
