The measles death rate (deaths per 100,000 people) in the United States was:
- 1900 – 13.3 (about 7000 deaths)
- 1910 – 12.4
- 1920 – 8.8
- 1930 – 3.2
- 1935 – 3.1
- 1940 – 0.5
- 1945 – 0.2
- 1950 – 0.3 (468 deaths)
- 1955 – 0.2 (345 deaths)
- 1960 – 0.2 (380 deaths)
- 1963 – first measles vaccine licensed
- 1965 – 0.1 (276 deaths)
- 1970 – 0.0 (89 deaths)
- 1975 – 0.0 (20 deaths)
- 1980 – 0.0 (11 deaths)
- 1985 – 0.0 (4 deaths)
That’s not surprising though. The general death rate had dropped from 17.8 in 1900 to 7.6 in 1960. For infants under age 12 months, the death rate dropped from 162.4 in 1933 to 27 in 1960.
This simply reflects that vaccines were not the only medical technology that helped to save lives in the 20th century and not that measles was already disappearing. Penicillin, insulin, vitamin D, blood typing (allows transfusions of blood that has been typed and cross-matched), dialysis machines, and mechanical ventilators were all discovered in the early 1900s.
Here is one reason it is so hard to find helpful healthful remedies to different conditions. For measles, NCBI states,
There is no specific antiviral therapy for measles; treatment is primarily supportive. Control of fever, prevention, and correction of dehydration, and infection control measures including appropriate isolation form the mainstay of therapy.[13]
The WHO recommends the administration of daily doses of vitamin A for 2 days and more days for malnourished children. Measles complications should be identified early and appropriate therapy initiated.[14]
It literally says there is no treatment. That's a lie. There is a treatment, and that treatment is vitamin D3 and fat-soluble vitamin A. They say merely that "The WHO recommends the administration of daily doses of vitamin A for 2 days and more days for malnourished children" but fail to mention that it is fat-soluble A, not beta-carotene A. That statement by the CDC also says "malnourished," and that has problems. Out of guilt, a mother or parent would never admit to their children being "malnourished" and so might think, "Hey, my kid doesn't need vitamin A. Do you see the deceit of these articles if you're a young parent looking for help? I had measles as an adult, and I showed the doctor the red scarring and mumps. He had no idea what to do, so I left.
