'I'm worried it's getting worse': Texas measles outbreak grows as families resist vaccination

[Marener]

You think millions of unvetted ILLEGAL ALIENS invading the country two hundred miles away can't and don't carry measles?

They can, but odds are against it.

 

[Concerned American]

They can, but odds are against it.

Try again. The odds are greater those measles came across the TX/Mex border. Have you identified any infected residents or travelers from anywhere else? Naw, didn't think so.

Many times more people travel in and out of the country than cross the border illegally.

 

[Hollie]

Texas is a problem. Two cases in New York means very little in comparison.

Yeah. Tuberculosis in New York is never a problem.

 

[Concerned American]

Many times more people travel in and out of the country than cross the border illegally.

Yeah, go with that one. Over the past four years? You need to clean the other arm off.

There’s about 60 million Americans that travel abroad and a similar number of foreigners that visit the country each year.

Every year. Over 100 million.

Are you any good at math?

 

[Couchpotato]

Of course not, but it's emblematic of his stupidity.

Should we talk about he thinks seed oils are poison? Or how about thinking antidepressants are hard core addictive drugs?

You know if we replace high fructose corn syrup with cane sugar everyone will be healthy, right?

He's a fucking moron and nothing is being done.

What's worse.

A. Thinking American's general health needs to be improved and that by doing so it will strengthen their ability to survive/thrive regardless of what the world throws at them health wise (See COVID)

or

B. Funding gain of function research circumventing US policy by doing it through a subsidiary in a country known for it's lax controls on such things likely unleashing a lab created epidemic which killed untold millions of people.....


Im sure it's A.

Can you? Nat'l Foundation for Infectious Diseases. 2016. Now quit trolling and educate yourself. According to this site, No Central or South American country even has a measles vaccine program.

Before a measles vaccine was licensed in 1963, the disease sickened millions and killed hundreds every year. In 1971, the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) combination vaccine was licensed in the US. By the year 2000, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) declared that endemic measles had
been eliminated from the US

Measles Immunization in the US - NFID

The US ranks just 12th in measles immunization coverage, with a 91% coverage rate. Countries like Singapore, Mongolia, Russia, and China – all of which spend significantly less than the US on healthcare per capita– are among those that boast higher coverage rates.

Measles breaks out at massive NYC migrant shelter

Health officials are responding to at least case of measles that have been detected at a sprawling migrant shelter in New York City. Dozens are being quarantined.

ENJOY.

Yep, a whole two 2 cases at a huge shelter.

 

[Zafira Cherry]

You should pay attention. This is not about the forced Wuhan virus clot shot.

You should pay attention

With global measles cases surging more than 20% in a year, the spectre of an anti-vaccine leader like Robert F Kennedy Junior at the helm of US health policy has alarmed public health experts. Kennedy, a well-known vaccine sceptic, has long promoted dangerous misconceptions about vaccines, and his influence could worsen an already dire situation.

 

[Doc7505]

Who is claiming that illegals spreading infectious diseases such as TB and measles is a problem?

The US taxpayers will pick up the cost.

~~~~~~
Of course. Not to mention the American citizen that fall victim to the various diseases.

 

[22lcidw]

They can, but odds are against it.

There is evidence that many diseases are coming through with illegals. Diseases we knocked down are on the upswing.

Captain, these are anti vax Mennonites living in their own isolated community. They don't vax, the dummies.

Says the site's leading Conspiracy Theorist .

Yes .The same nasty and ignorant little man who repeatedly claimed Ivermectin did not cure Covid when given early .

 

[Marener]

That’s absolutely idiotic. South and Central America have very high measles vaccination rates. Measles is endemic to some areas of Africa and Southeast Asia.

The growth of global immunisation

Immunisation has been one of the great success stories of global health but 1.5 million children still die from diseases that could be prevented by routine vaccines.

Im sure it's A.

A is a meaningless platitude and B is internet conspiracy.

Health policy should be grounded in reality, not bullshit.

 

[Zincwarrior]

CULTISTS won't get vaccinated. They will claim it causes blood clots and heart attacks and sudden deaths.

Cleansing the gene pool I guess. Thats taking the Darwin Awards literally...

 

[Couchpotato]

Probabilities.

I think you’re math might be bad.

Ummm wow. Ok. Well there's that I guess.

You really dont think the NIH was funding gain of function research in Wuhan?

'Cases tied to the large outbreak have spread to at least three states.

The measles outbreak that began in Texas before spreading to at least two other states swelled to 355 confirmed cases on Friday — and officials say there is no sign it’s slowing.

“I’m worried it’s getting worse,” Katherine Wells, director of public health for Lubbock, told NBC News.

Many people aren’t getting tested for measles, and efforts to increase vaccination in the affected areas have gotten a lukewarm response, Wells said during a media briefing by the Big Cities Health Coalition on Tuesday.

Wells said she thought it could be a year until the outbreak is controlled.'

"...outbreak grows as families resist vaccination"

When you fervently believe in Trump, you cannot believe in science.

Thanks to joe bidens illegal policies

The unvaccinated are the ones your dumb ass dem puppet president let in fuck stick

And we permit Americans to run around unvaccinated.

You don't know what that means, do you?

Gain-of-function research involves altering an organism's genetic makeup to enhance or modify its biological functions. For example, scientists might make a virus more transmissible or adaptable to different hosts in controlled laboratory settings. This type of research is often conducted to better understand pathogens, predict emerging infectious diseases, and develop vaccines or treatments.
