Immune amnesia: Why even mild measles infections can lead to serious disease later

Getting measles doesn’t confer benefits on the immune system — in fact, it’s just the opposite.
Even a mild case of measles destroys the memory cells that confer resistance on bugs the patient has previously fought, in what doctors call “immune amnesia.”
A measles outbreak has infected nearly 500 people in 19 states, including California. Vaccinations prevent both the measles and the subsequent loss of immune protections.

It's true. It's happened to me in the time before a measles vaccine. I got very ill...Hospitalized. I also went through a series of very painful gamma globulin shots to get some immunity built back up. Don't let this happen to your child...or you.

Human defense peptides

Host defense peptide expression improve the epithelial barrier

"Our studies on innate immunity with emphasis on front line defenses have unfolded key components in our innate immunity. Among the components is the sole human cathelicidin containing the host defense peptide LL-37"

It all started with a moth

#Trump is currently trying to use the shield of presidential #immunity to snuff out these 8 consolidated lawsuits. Opposing lawyers countered in Feb with a 55-pg court filing that was supported by 186 exhibits.

3 of those apparently involve #DanScavino, who’s now trying to keep them from going public.

Encouraging: "WH press secretary Karoline Leavitt just said the administration is not planning any further deportation flights to El Salvador."

"Karoline Leavett was just humiliated on LIVE TV:

Leavitt: “The judge is a Democratic activist judge appointed by Obama.”

Reporter: “He was originally appointed by GW Bush.”
-Call to Activism

Trump must realize that SC CJ Roberts isn't going to give him carte blanche. He doesn't have absolute #immunity.

"Taxpayers were not made fully whole for the millions of dollars of repairs & cleanup from the damage of the Capitol Insurrection.

After the Trump pardons of rioters, defendants are now seeking to get reimbursed from taxpayers for their court-ordered restitution payments"
-S MacFarland

Republican Senators & Reps are complicit, they're allowing Trump to do anything he pleases. What will change their minds? Will #SCOTUS continue to🚨grant #Trump absolute #immunity?

Climate litigation - Environmental groups sound new alarm as fossil fuel lobby pushes for immunity theguardian.com/us-news/2025/m

Nearly 200 groups urge Congress to reject fossil fuel industry immunity efforts, fearing long-term damage to climate lawsuits

“Lawmakers must decisively reject any attempt by the fossil fuel industry to evade accountability and ensure both justice today and the right of future generations to hold polluters responsible for decades of deception,” said the missive, which is addressed to the House minority leader, Hakeem Jeffries, and Senate minority leader, Chuck Schumer.

Fossil fuel companies have vied for such a get-out-of-jail-free card for years.

“Measles is far from a harmless childhood infection. The virus kills immune cells and eliminates “immune memory” in the body, wiping out the protective effect of past vaccines and leaving kids vulnerable to other illnesses. Children who've had measles can have more infections for up to five years.” - Dawn Bowdish, a professor of medicine at McMaster. #measles #vaccines #immunity #medicine #science thespec.com/news/hamilton-regi

If we were to see immune damage manifesting at a population level, it would look like what we’re seeing today: big waves of common illnesses. Unusual spikes of uncommon illnesses. Course reversal for previously declining and eliminated illnesses. An unexplained, global wave of sickness.

How much more denial can the bodies of our children take? Are we going to force them to find out?
