Little red rashies everywhere for a few days, no further ill effects. One of those "harmless childhood diseases" that antivax crew love to deathcult about.</p><p>Measles or "Red Measles" or Rubeola, on the other hand, that shit is bad. Real fuckin bad. And as I understand it, that's what is on the spread.</p><p>Rubella = German Measles = don't panic.</p><p>Measles = Rubeola = antivaxxers are participants in multiple homicides.</p><p>So my <em>concern</em> is, that a lot of you are brushing off the Measles outbreaks, because you think it's Rubella.</p>
