Massive Omission in Media Coverage of Measles Outbreaks

I keep waiting for some journalist or pundit to bring this up,
but so far if it has surfaced, I haven't seen/heard it.
Measles can cause immediate health problems and/or death, as
well as having mild to severe long-term effects in most cases.
But the worst aspect of measles is that it resets your immune
system - it wipes immunity to other pathogens that you've built
up through vaccination and/or infection. (Incidentially, this
major medical discovery from the mid-2010's is one of Michael
Mina's claims to fame, back before he became a virus minimizer.)
At a time when most people's immune systems are shot because of
covid...? And we have H5N1/H9N2, seasonal flu strains, RSV,
tuberculosis, pertussis, HRSV, norovirus, and whatever else in
the wind....??!
Seems highly relevant to what we have to look forward to when it
comes to overall health trends - especially as virologists try
to guage potential death rates of an HPAI pandemic. A percentage
of the population being entirely immune-naïve seems like a giant
factor in how bad things could get :-\
