Question Statement :

Here’s another reason to get vaccinated against measles - researchers have found that the measles virus makes kids’ immune systems “forget” most of what they have learned, leaving children vulnerable to other diseases for as long as three years. “Our findings suggest that measles vaccines have benefits that extend beyond just protecting against measles itself,” said Michael Mina, a medical student at Emory University who worked on the study while doing postdoctoral research at Princeton University.

Which of the following, if true, would most strengthen the argument made in favor of the vaccination against measles?

Studies have suggested that vaccines can have broader benefits than simply protecting against a single disease.
If you get measles, three years later, you could die from something that you would not die from had you not been infected with measles.
Various scientists are working to find out whether reducing measles incidence will cause a drop in deaths from other infectious diseases.
The findings, published in the journal Science, help explain why deaths and illnesses from a range of diseases plummet in countries after they introduced measles vaccine campaigns.
