"What had happened was there was conflicting information about whether the vaccines were causing autism or not, so we were afraid that if we had gotten the kids the vaccines that it might actually cause autism. So and that's really messed up because what are you supposed to believe?"

"I understand if you know you don't want your kid to get that vaccine because of that, you know, it's, you know, what about your kid's best friend? What if they end up dying because they end up getting this measles and it's 10 times worse on that kid than it was on your kid? The measles aren't really something to play with, you know, I mean, from what I've heard, you know, from it was pretty much eradicated. You know, and now they're talking about also on the news that these kids could be getting these diseases under the age of 2 that could have long term effects."

STORYLINE:
The South Carolina Department of Public Health launched mobile clinics for free measles vaccines after the state reported an outbreak with hundreds of cases that began in October.
A leading U.S. health official is urging people to get inoculated against the measles at a time of outbreaks across several states.
The appeal is from Dr. Mehmet Oz, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services administrator. And it comes as the United States is at risk of losing its measles elimination status and as Oz's boss, Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., has raised suspicion about the safety and importance of vaccines.
