The dosage has since been tuned to facilitate even greater results and has now been shown to prevent any case of these diseases. Only 1 in 25,000 and 1 in 40,000 children are thought to acquire a moderate or severe side effect from the vaccination. Given the considerable rarity for such a side effect to occur, it is considerably safer for a child to receive an MMR vaccination than to not receive it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The answer to which one of the following questions would be most helpful to evaluate the argument drawn above?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u24b6 How likely is it for an unvaccinated child to contract measles, mumps, or rubella?<br \/>\n\u24b7 How likely is it for a child to contract a disease other than measles, mumps, or rubella?<br \/>\n\u24b8 How many children who receive the MMR vaccination contract diseases other than measles, mumps, or rubella?<br \/>\n\u24b9 How effective is the vaccination in treating demographics other than children, such as adults or senior citizens?<br \/>\n\u24ba How many children contract a dangerous virus of any variety?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div><a href=\"https:\/\/gmatclub.com\/forum\/ragct-2015-day-25-the-measles-mumps-rubella-vaccine-203684.html\">Question Discussion &amp; Explanation<\/a><br \/>\n<strong>Correct Answer<\/strong> <span style=\"background-color: #fff; color: #fff;\">- A -<\/span> (click and drag your mouse to see the answer)<\/div>\n<p><strong>Like these questions?<\/strong> Get the GMAT Club question collection: <a href=\"https:\/\/gmatclub.com\/forum\/inference-revision-government-restrictions-have-severely-limited-193148.html\">on your Kindle<\/a> OR <a href=\"https:\/\/click.linksynergy.com\/fs-bin\/stat?id=PJTlq5NYqfE&amp;offerid=146261&amp;type=3&amp;subid=blog&amp;tmpid=1826&amp;RD_PARM1=http%253A%252F%252Fitunes.apple.com%252Fus%252Fapp%252Fgmat-toolkit%252Fid328345537%253Fmt%253D8%2526uo%253D6%2526partnerId%253D30\">on your iPhone\/iPad<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/gmatclub.com\/blog\/category\/blog\/gmat-tests\/\"><strong>Browse all GMAT Questions of the Day<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Subscribe to GMAT Question of the Day:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/feedburner.google.com\/fb\/a\/mailverify?uri=GMAT-Question-of-the-day&amp;loc=en_US\">E-mail<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/GMAT-Question-of-the-day\">RSS<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Math Carly has three movies that she can watch during the weekend: an action movie, a comedy, or a drama.
