Yeah, well, first of all, and again, I'm terrible sorry for any child's death of any cost. And I will not disrespect anybody. I am a father of four, and I love children as a pediatrician, as a human being. And it's a tragedy all the time. And so the data is that one child died in Texas, and then another patient died in New Mexico. in New Mexico.

But if we ask the question, what was the condition in terms of immune system or any other comorbidities? We don't know. I don't I don't think that information is available. We don't know that. And and so it's and let me tell you my personal experience. So as you know, you know, I've been practicing for over 32 years and I have different specialties.

And until this moment, Dr. Victory, I haven't seen not even a single case of missiles ever in my life. And I've been trained in Europe and Mexico, working in the United States, everywhere, and I haven't seen it. So it's not that common. It's important to stress that out. It's important to mention to the public, to the audience. And so that's number one.

Number two, you know, right now there are not a lot of doctors who have a lot of experience with missiles. So it's not easy to recognize it, even though, yes, we know it's a communicable disease. It's a viral illness. It's a feral illness, you know, going with coughing, with maculopapular rash and running nose, choriza, conjunctivitis. We know that. We know that. Every doctor knows that.

But it's hard to recognize it because there are so many overlapping signs and symptoms of so many other diseases that it's hard to make the correct diagnosis. My question will be, who did the diagnosis? What kind of technology from the lab standpoint they did? And, you know, there's so many questions. So I will start with that introduction in terms of the measles. What do you think, Dr. Kelly?

And Dr. Victor, I'm sorry to interrupt, but on top of that, I mean, there's a risk. There is a risk from us, you and I, or whoever, driving from our home to our job. Driving our kids to the school. There's some risk. So there are risks on anything. So we just have to balance it out and just being very objective. I think this will be like the main message to everybody. But you're absolutely right.

Well, I was just, as you know, I was recently in Japan speaking at the Japanese parliament in Tokyo. And it was mostly about COVID and the COVID operation and everything. And then we did a huge march in Tokyo. And it was amazing. We met amazing physicians. And basically the reason behind that, it was just scientific data. Scientific data, they get rid of those, and they did exactly what you said.

And this is, again, just trying to bring common sense to science. Common sense to science. Like, for example, what happened recently in Kansas with the tuberculosis outbreak? And I haven't heard anybody like, let's go rush immediately to go and get the vaccine and this and that. So everything is about perspective.
