President Donald Trump urged people to get vaccinated for measles, saying Friday it’s “so important” amid the worst year for the disease in the U.S. since it was declared eradicated from the country in 2000.
“They have to get the shots. The vaccinations are so important. This is really going around now. They have to get their shots,” Trump told reporters in response to a question about measles before departing for Indiana to give a speech at the annual National Rifle Association convention.
