Renae, Becky Archer’s daughter, was too young to receive a vaccination when she was diagnosed with measles at five months of age. She received the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine a year later after showing signs of recovery.
However, Renae passed away at the age of ten from a rare brain illness brought on by her earlier infection.
Since it has been apparent that the uptake of childhood vaccinations for diseases like polio and measles is at an all-time low, her mother is now advising parents to ensure that their own children receive vaccinations in order to reduce the spread of disease.
According to Ms. Archer, if more kids had received vaccinations, her daughter might not have contracted the measles.
In order to provide the best possible protection against a variety of childhood illnesses, the NHS recommends parents to vaccinate their children.
However, fresh data from 2023–2024 reveals that not a single vaccine achieved the goal required to guarantee that diseases cannot spread among youngsters.
