The measles "immune amnesia" impact where the body loses immunity to other diseases that it previously could fight makes this doubly concerning.

Even after recovering from measles these people could be far more susceptible to / suffer from / spread other diseases.

If you say it to the wrong audience they’ll self infect so that measles undoes the effects of previously taken vaccines.
