dr. anthony fauci director of the national institute of allergy and infectious diseases.it's pretty infuriating, i think, to a lot of people that this is happening with a disease that was all but gone in 2000. >> right. that's true. that's one of the frustrating aspects of it is is that you have a highly contagious infectious disease and a vaccine that's one of the most effective vaccines of all the vaccines we have against infections and has been shown to be really quite safe and yet, because for one reason or another, parents are not vaccinating children in certain areas and in certain groups. we're now seeing the resurgence of a potentially serious disease where there have vulnerable people. you mentioned the children in the daycare center. >> right. >> those are children who were too young to be vaccinated. so we go from birth to 1-year-old and you don't get vaccinated, you get vaccinated at 12 months to 15 months and then a second one at 4 years. so all of those children are vulnerable to measles outbreaks. >> if you're not vaccinated you have a 90% chance of getting

dr. anthony fauci is the head of the infectious diseases at the national institutes of health. -own cbs news chief medical correspondent of course is dr. jon lapook. dr. fauci, are we the verge of a major epidemic here? >> not a major epidemic in the sense of globally around the united states, more than 90% of the people in the united states are vaccinated. we're talking about outbreaks among vulnerable people. i think what people don't really appreciate is that children, even normal children without any issues of health from birth to one year old are not vaccinated because you don't vaccinate children until they're 12 months old. when you have outbreaks children for example, in daycare centers like we saw in chicago, become vulnerable if there is enough infection in the country to allow for these outbreaks that we saw in california and disneyland. >> schieffer: it was california, the group in disleyland, outbreak in chicago. any other pockets? >> as you said, several states, in south dakota, for example there's a cluster. and vulnerability is always since this is such a highly

dr. anthony fauci director of the national institute of infectious diseases. what's going on? why are we going the other direction? i thought everybody was vaccinated we eradicated the disease and now we're going the other direction. >> that's unfortunate and the reason we're seeing the outbreaks is there are certain segments pockets in the country which the vaccination rate gets below a certain level which leads to the possibility of outbreaks. that's the reason we're seeing it now in 2015. in 2014 was a very bad year for measles. we had gotten rid of measles by the year 2000 by a vaccination campaign, and because of certain parents not getting their children vaccinated we're starting to see a resurgence which is unfortunate, because this is an entirely preventable disease because the vaccine is very, very effective, and the disease can be quite serious. tom: as far as the group that's not vaccinated do you or any other organization have they tried to figure out who they are? what the demographics? where they live, et cetera? >> sure, if one looks at the map and looks at the

dr. anthony fauci, director of the national institute of allergy and infectious diseases at the national institutes of health. he's the man to talk to in this situation. doctor thank you for joining us. helping us understand what this means. these chicago nursery kids. were they old enough to be vaccinated? were they not vaccinated? and if they caught it what does it mean to you about what could come next? >> well according to the reports, they were young, so young that they could not be vaccinated. and those are the children who from birth to 12 months old, because you get your first vaccination between 12 and 15 months of age. and your second one between four and six years of age. so those children are vulnerable. through no fault of their own. they can't get vaccinated. and that's the reason why when children can get vaccinated you want them vaccinated not only to protect them but to protect the community of people who cannot get vaccinated. and this is exactly what we're concerned about. because when the vaccination rate in a region or in a country or in a small pocket such as in som

dr. anthony fauci is a brilliant epidemiologist who heads the national institutes of health of allergy and infectious disease. he said the discovery of teixobactin, he said it was a long shot but it worked. that was also true of the polio vaccine discovered 60 years ago by dr. jonas salk and so many other american cures and breakthroughs that changed the world. private industry doesn't fund this sort of basic foundational science. it can't. this kind of science takes patience and time and a lot of investment. america is blessed with some of the best and most generous medical philanthropies in the world but they can't fill this funding gap. only we can do it. it takes our government to fund the science that leads to breakthrough cures. this shouldn't be a partisan issue and it shouldn't be a low-budget priority. i think it should be the highest. i ask my colleagues join me in supporting the american cures act. help save lives and restore american biomedical research leadership and strengthen america. as jonas salk who pioneered the polio vaccine would say -- quote -- "the only way we can lo
