All 6 kids get the measles, and while a little red in the face, they are shown enjoying days off from school, playing board games and reading comic books.
I'm not blaming the Brady Bunch or Sherwood Schwarz. It was a long time ago and the vaccine didn't really exist back then.
But today people seeing that episode might really get the wrong idea that measles is no big deal, and that vaccines are not necessary. The responsible thing for tv stations airing the Brady Bunch would be to skip that episode.
