Jimmy Margulies created this image on May 30 2014 amid rising measles cases linked to lower vaccination rates. The left panel shows a woman with a protest sign and a speech bubble claiming spreading support. The right panel shows a sick child labeled measles declaring the spread is certain. This responds to the anti-vaccination movement active at the time including public statements from figures like Jenny McCarthy. The work highlights how refusal of shots allows the disease to return in communities.
