FTA, if pneumonia rate from measles is 1 in 20 infections with modern care, that's a lot more selection for antibiotic resistance in hospital settings, given the 3M childhood measles cases a year before MMR was available.

If the death rate for that pneumonia goes to 0.001, that's 150 kids a year.

Try... reading the article this thread is about?
- The TX girl recently dead from measles was healthy
- “Across the board, [measles hospitalization rate is] 1 in 5 and in all cases of the measles 1 in 20 will get pneumonia"
And measles suppresses immune response to bacterial secondary infections.
