    3 For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, 4 that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures --1 Corinthians 15:3-4 (borrowed with gratitude from 37818's sig)

        Is the vaccine failing or is this a virulent version of measles? This is worse than the expected 1/10000 deaths.

            Apparently the anti-vax movement is pretty strong in Samoa resulting low vaccination rates. That was a formula for disaster. After a massive government-led vaccination drive FWIU the rate is now up around 90% but is it too late?

              It was a failure to vaccinate due to fear. Two nurses were involved in vaccination errors that leads to deaths. This scared people off from getting the vaccine-not just the typical anti vaccination arguments.

                Mercy to them, indeed--will pray...
                "What I pray of you is, to keep your eye upon Him, for that is everything. Do you say, 'How am I to keep my eye on Him?' I reply, keep your eye off everything else, and you will soon see Him. All depends on the eye of faith being kept on Him. How simple it is!" (J.B. Stoney)
