Measles was once thought to be a disease of the past, nearly wiped out thanks to vaccines. But today, it's making a dangerous comeback, threatening communities worldwide. What went wrong?

This book delves deeply into the history, science, and ongoing fight against measles. From the early days of deadly outbreaks to the groundbreaking development of the MMR vaccine, it unpacks how the disease spreads, why it's so contagious, and how global vaccination efforts nearly eliminated it. But it also reveals how vaccine hesitancy, misinformation, and declining immunization rates have allowed measles to return-putting the most vulnerable at risk.

With expert insights and real-world examples, The Rise of Measles and the Battle for Public Health explains what individuals, families, and policymakers can do to stop this preventable disease once and for all. If you care about public health and the future of disease prevention, this book is essential reading.
