First #measles death in the US in a decade, due to the ongoing outbreak in Texas. No details yet on the patient. Predictably, our head of HHS is silent.

Is it fair to assume it’s a child? If so, it’s pretty tragic that they likely died because their parents believed in conspiracy theories vs actual proven medical research.
We've been very lucky in recent outbreaks. Statistical 1 in 500 die even in modern day, and in 2019 alone we had over 1200. Unfortunately it was bound to happen sometime. :(
