The U.S. Secretary of Health be landlubberin’ over a fierce measles outbreak in Texas, where 146 poor souls be stricken since January 2025, and a wee lad has met Davy Jones, the first measles fatality in a decade! Arrr, that be a grim tidin’ indeed!Measles, a devilish contagious beast, spreads like wildfire when a scallywag coughs or sneezes! Symptoms be a fever hotter than a cannon’s fire, paired with a vile rash. Back in the day, before the mighty vaccine rose, every young deckhand caught the measles, with death raining down like cannonballs! Arrr!
