Only one side of the vaccine controversy is ever reported in the US media.
Government and the media try, on a variety of subjects, to make their stories true simply by endless repetition. That doesn’t make them true. From Britigne Shaffer at lewrockwell.com:
It’s that season again: Another outbreak of a benign childhood disease that only a couple of generations ago the vast majority of the US population contracted and recovered from, serendipitously occurring precisely at the time when legislators across the country are putting forward bills to strip parents of the right to choose whether or not to vaccinate their own children.

Take a look at these three recent articles on the “crisis” of parents who choose not to vaccinate their children. Do you notice something they all have in common?

I think the point of the article is the failure to acknowledge the controversy in the scientific community over vaccines. The fact that more people die of complications of vaccines than of measles (the ratio is about 150 to 1) is a major concern – as is the fact that our current vaccine regimen fails to protect young infants or people over age 18. The immunity conferred by the current measles vaccine lasts about six years. This means most adults who haven’t acquired natural immunity from the illness aren’t protected – nor are young infants whose mothers haven’t experienced the illness.
