MMR Vaccine Rates Are Dropping—Here’s Why

Did you know MMR vaccination rates for kids in the US have dropped nearly 3% since COVID? That’s after a decade of steady numbers! Most counties saw a dip, and only a handful of states (like CA and NY) went up. The drop is linked to a surge in anti-vax misinformation online. Now, with measles cases spiking (over 1,000 this year!), some states are even making it easier to skip vaccines for school. Herd immunity is slipping, and experts are worried. Wild times! #MMR #Vaccines #PublicHealth #Health
