Doesn't this map of the US look as if the map itself has the measles? BTW, In my family history research I found cemetery records for children who'd died of measles. One poor family in NJ lost 3 children under the age of 5 in a measles outbreak in the late 1840s.

Cowards die many times before their deaths;
The valiant never taste of death but once.
Of all the wonders that I yet have heard,
It seems to me most strange that men should fear;
Seeing that death, a necessary end,
Will come when it will come.
William Shakespeare, Julius Caesar

Olíver Cromwell was buried in Westminster Abbey. They later dug him up, hung his dead body, put his head on a pike and displayed it over Westminster Hall for 20 years. His headless body was buried in an unmarked grave.
