I think in THOSE parts of the world, the lack of pure water and food kills more than a bacterial infection.

In what point? that there is no good studies or that he has vaccinated himself and claims he hasn't?

There are many other vaccines than just the MMR one. What about them? also it is said that 5811 of the children got symptoms. (i wouldn't want to be one of those) Statistically speaking out of 537,303 children it is not very many. The study did not say that did the rest have a increased risk to develop or did they develop any other illnesses like inflammation or flu like symptoms or something similar.
That is hardly a very controlled environment. What were these children eating etc? did they have very different living conditions? and did they have any other vaccines prior to the measles vaccine?
"However, there have been no controlled studies to show whether this approach is effective."
Why would you even want to vaccinate yourself against something like this? My immune system fixed this quite well by itself. But i was also vaccinated prior with some vaccine i think, maybe mmr, so did they take into account that it might have made me more prone to get this disease?
All in all these studies are following a pattern of Vaccine 1X against Disease 1X .. success rate %. But they don't take into account as far as i could tell by quickly looking at the abstracts that if you are more prone to get sick to the common flu, or develop allergies or something else. Every singly one of these studies seem to look down at a very narrow path and not take into account the broader picture. They might in the study itself, but don't say in the abstracts that if the person has got a vaccine prior for another disease.. what is the benefits or complications on combining these vaccines.
