Parents who don’t vaccinate children against preventable diseases are stupid.
To be very clear this parent wasn’t to blame. She caught it before her first vaccination and the death was resulting from a complication from the virus. How she caught it and from whom is another question.
“Rebecca Archer’s 10-year-old daughter Renae caught the infection at just five months old and was too young to be vaccinated.
She had seemingly recovered and gone on to have the MMR vaccine as part of her routine immunisations.
But a decade later, she developed a rare brain disease that was triggered by her previous measles infection which had laid dormant for all that time and died in September 2023.”
Thanks Daily Mirror for reporting about measles in the UK and then only showing a map of England

The parents should be charged with manslaughter.
