Simultaneously, health officials in New Jersey are tracking travelers at Newark Liberty International Airport who may have been exposed to measles in Terminals B and C. Media reports are criticized for encouraging continued vaccination even after admitting the current shots do not target the circulating strains.

The discussion shifts to modern vaccine hesitancy following the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on public health narratives. Additionally, reports on Sublocade suggest that while it helps with opioid withdrawal, it carries its own risks of high-potency addiction.

The segment contrasts a 1969 episode of "The Brady Bunch," where the measles were depicted as a routine childhood illness involving "dots and a big smile," with modern medical portrayals. The shift from viewing measles as a rite of passage to a life-threatening emergency is analyzed as a change in societal and media framing.

The episode depicts a dramatic conflict between doctors and "anti-vax" parents, culminating in a forced spinal tap. This portrayal is characterized as medical propaganda designed to shame parents who do their own research, contrasting sharply with the "wholesome" era of 1970s television.
