Measles: The race to understand 'immune amnesia'

Scientists have known for years that measles can alter the immune system – but the latest evidence suggests it's less of a mild tweaking, and more of a total reset.

I had never heard this until today, and it’s an absolutely horrifying thought.

You’re welcome.
