Vaccination urged as measles threat looms locally
Bremer county medical society and Dr W B Weeber urge parents to use free measles vaccine offered by the State Health Department for children aged 1 to 15 who have not had measles. Vaccination aims to raise immunity, prevent complications like pneumonia and ear infections, and reduce school absence and lost days. The report notes 14 million lost school days annually and references a 1963 vaccine victory against the virus. It also details county land lease plans and board reorganization.
