Measles Death in India The deathly itchy rash.
Introduction Measles is a viral disease that is very infectious. It causes fever and red rash. This is typically occurring inbabies or children. 4 randomly selected countries are being compared on cases of deaths of children under 5 due to the measles.
Data My information is fair because it is all in the percentage of death. In Canada, Singapore and in the United Kingdom, 0% of the children that get measles die because of it. India on the other hand, 3.7% of the children die after getting the measles.
Explanation Many other countries have been able to better control the results of measles because most children are able to afford different vaccines. Many crowded, developing countries make it easier for the disease to spread. The more people get it, the more likely there will be more deaths.
Conclusion India should be given money to help combat the deaths due to measles. The money would be used to ensure that everyone gets their immunization to help prevent them from dying. If we make sure that everyone can get their shots then the problem would have a much lower risk.
