'MURICA — According to the CDC, there has been an increase of measles cases this year.

The past few years has seen a rise in people who unfortunately think vital vaccinations cause autism, which they don't.

Most of the people who got measles were reportedly unvaccinated.

Measles includes symptoms such as high fever, red eyes, and a rash that begins on the face.

The CDC says the virus is contagious as it stays in the airspace when someone with measles has coughed or sneezed.

Ninety percent of the people who aren't immune to the virus will likely become infected.

They also recommend getting the measles, mumps, and rubella vaccine to prevent measles.

The disease is especially unsafe for children under the age of 5 or adults over the age of 20.
