How do I get measles in a well-nourished country?

Quote of the day:

Better nutrition indeed leads to a stronger immune system; and only about 1 percent of children with measles in well-nourished countries will die, as opposed to 10 percent in sub-Sahara Africa.

Only 1% will die? Are the other 99% immortal? As it reads, it seems the other 99% will not die. Ever.

Sounds like pretty good odds to me.
