A political cartoon from The Columbus Dispatch dated April 16, 2019, shows an adult male figure standing with one arm extended toward three children. The man wears a green shirt bearing a red circle with a slash over the word VAX. A large speech bubble above him reads, "I REJECT VACCINES OUT OF LOVE FOR MY CHILDREN," with the word CHILDREN highlighted in red.

Three virus-like spheres labeled MEASLES, MUMPS and RUBELLA appear near the man's hand, each rendered with spikes and colors typical of scientific illustrations of pathogens. The children, positioned to the right, include one in a red shirt, one in pink overalls and one holding a teddy bear. The composition places the viruses between the adult and the children.

The cartoon addresses measles outbreaks reported in multiple states during the first months of 2019, which health officials linked to pockets of lower vaccination coverage. The visual places the speech about parental love directly beside the labeled disease agents to underscore the medical consequences of vaccine refusal. The Columbus Dispatch and CagleCartoons.com logos appear in the upper right corner alongside the artist's signature.
