Kennedy Jr., a prominent vaccine skeptic. His equivocal response has drawn harsh criticism from scientists, who say he has offered <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/03\/02\/health\/measles-vaccination-texas-kennedy.html\" title=\"\">muted support for vaccination<\/a> and has <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/03\/04\/health\/texas-measles-outbreak-kennedy.html\" title=\"\">emphasized such untested treatments<\/a> for measles as cod liver oil.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Instead of broadly lauding the safety and efficacy of vaccines, as past health secretaries have, his message has been that vaccines help protect against measles but that the decision to vaccinate \u201cis a personal one.\u201d <\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">All of the New Mexico cases have involved someone unvaccinated or with unknown vaccine status. While the cases in New Mexico have not officially been connected to the Texas outbreak, officials have said a link is \u201csuspected.\u201d <\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">As of Tuesday, the measles outbreak in West Texas had <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/03\/04\/health\/texas-measles-outbreak-kennedy.html\" title=\"\">sickened nearly 160<\/a> and hospitalized 22. <\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">New Mexico health officials urged residents to get the measles, mumps and rubella vaccine, which experts say is the best way to protect against the disease. Two doses of the vaccine prevent more than 97 percent of measles infections.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cWe don\u2019t want to see New Mexicans getting sick or dying from measles,\u201d Dr. Chad Smelser, a state epidemiologist, said in a news release. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-2\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Measles, a virus spread when an infected person breathes, coughs or sneezes, is extremely infectious. Each infected person can spread the pathogen to as many as 18 others.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Within a week or two of being exposed, those who are infected may develop a high fever, cough, runny nose and red, watery eyes. Within a few days, a telltale rash breaks out, first as flat, red spots on the face, and then spreading down the neck and torso to the rest of the body.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">In most cases, these symptoms resolve in a few weeks. But in rare cases, the virus causes pneumonia, making it difficult for patients, especially children, to get oxygen into their lungs. <\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The infection can also lead to brain swelling, which can cause lasting damage, including blindness, deafness and intellectual disabilities.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">For every 1,000 children who get measles, one or two will die, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-3\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The virus also weakens the immune system in the long term, making its host more susceptible to future infections. <\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">A 2015 study found that before the M.M.R. vaccine was widely available, measles may have been responsible for up to half of all infectious disease deaths in children.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<p><script async
