Measles On ’60s Sitcoms And Cartoons – In The Days Before The Marketing Of The Vaccine

Are Donna Reed, The Flintstones and The Bradies going to turn over their human rights and medical freedom to their bodies because of a little measles?

Watch the pre-vaccine and pharmaceutical marketing vintage clips above as Donna Reed, standing in a doctor’s office, smiles sweetly and pronounces that a measles diagnosis is “not serious.” Fred Flinstone and Barney Rubble are mad about losing money for a vacation they have to cancel, but not about Wilma and Betty coming down with the measles.  And all of the Brady Bunch children play Monopoly and “joke” over the school days they get to miss while Mrs. Brady happily checks off the family disease tracking chart for who’s had what and declares, “Well the measles are over in the Brady family.”
