Measles outbreak worsening in Texas

[Maxdeath]

The irony is it is you who doesn't understand the idea of freedom. Freedom in a society doesn't mean you can get to endanger the public for your freeDUMB. Your freeDUMB doesn't allow you to shout, FIRE, in a crowded theater. Your freeDUMB doesn't allow you to point your gun at people, even though, you haven't loaded it or actually planned on shooting anyone. In any society, even free ones we all live by rules, regulations and laws in order for society to run properly and without endangering it's citizens. Sounds like you'd prefer to live in the jungle or forest where none of that exists. Be my guest. The Congo seems like a nice place. Leave civilized society for civilized people.



Why would I need someone to read this for me. i already know the answer, that's why I explained it to you in my last post. Maybe you can get someone who can read english properly to explain that to you. Maybe you can also get a history professor to explain to you, that one of the founders of the Constitution, George Washington, actually ordered all his soldiers to get inoculated against smallpox.

Kid you are funny. You are the fool that wants everyone in lockstep. Not sure where you would be comfortable. There are few places left that does not allow some form of personal freedom. Of course the way the democrats are going that might not be true much longer.
The fact is you can not even manage to spell correctly and do not have any idea how to use capitals. But hey no one really finds people like you to be much of a brain trust.
I did not really expect you to read and understand anything you only believe what your cult tells you to believe.

I stand corrected,

You stand ignorant. Nothing else.

Coming from someone who thinks migrants are the reason for the outbreaks we're currently experiencing, even though the outbreak was traced back to a Mennonite community is quite the irony lol.

Nope, not uncommon, so why blame Biden?

I didn’t

I didn’t start this thread

So, unvaccinated MAGA kids and unvaccinated Mennonites can cause measles outbreaks but unvaccinated migrants cannot? Sounds like a very scientific premise you are proposing.

So, unvaccinated people who live here are the problem? But when unvaccinated people come here from countries with high rates of measles infections, that’s not a problem?

“Measles is a highly contagious virus disease normally contracted in childhood. In industrialized nations, where children come into contact with the virus at school age, the complications are in the range of 0.2-1/1000 measles cases. In contrast, in the Third World countries, half the children become infected during their first year with mortality rates reaching as high as 60%.”

“Because measles is so contagious, it can easily cross borders. In 2023, an estimated 10.3 million people were infected with measles. Right now, measles outbreaks are happening in every region of the world. Anyone who is not protected against measles can get measles while abroad and easily spread it to others when they return home.

Although measles was declared eliminated in the United States in 2000, measles cases and outbreaks continue to occur in the United States due to unvaccinated international travelers. Large measles outbreaks are possible when travel-related measles cases reach at-risk U.S. populations with low immunization against measles. In 2019, the U.S. nearly lost its elimination status with almost 1,300 measles cases from a large outbreak in New York and cases in 30 additional states. After a decrease in global measles incidence during the COVID-19 pandemic, measles activity globally and in the United States continues to rise.”

Not sure your point that it's from the entire year....no, the link I provided is year to date for 2025.

As you can clearly see, Xiden handed a major outbreak, across more jurisdiction, with a higher hospitalization rate to Trump, and he's cut the numbers down

Cases in 2025: 164, hospitalization rate: 20 percent, 9 jurisdictions

Cases in 2024: 285, hospitalization rate: 40 percent., 33 jurisdictions

Yep, trump bring the xiden numbers down

Your link says the guy didn’t even die from measles and was an adult

How’s that rfk’s fault?

LITTLE medical knowledge or training.
THERE NOT PERFECT
but will leave those things up to THOSE Medically trained.

Did I ever say that migrants couldn't spread the measles?

The majority of cases have been linked with international travel. Take for instance in 2019 when there were 1249 cases in the US due to ppl traveling to Europe where there was a huge outbreak and then bringing it back here.

Allowing ppl into the country without proper vaccinations is an issue, but it's not the cause for the fearmongering that you and every other conservative on this board is making it out to be. They were not the cause of the outbreak. Migrants are also generally not demanding exemptions for their children, in an effort to game the system, especially in their situation. Only Americans do that.

In a country of 300,000,000+ the current outbreak is not growing much since first reporting and it’s a non-issue. I’m sorry for the child that died, people die all over this world every day. Left is using this as bullshit attack on the Trump administration. Everybody knows it with a clear thinking mind.

The media is doing its job again…somehow many Americans still don’t see the deception.

No, not even close.

The most intellectually accomplished people in history were seldom, if ever, millionaires let alone billionaires. Had you ever read a book you might have been aware of this.

Newton, Einstein, Erdosh, Plato, Socrates, James Maxwell, Pythagoras, John Von Neumann, Charles Babbage, Ampere, Faraday, Darwin, Tesla, Galileo etc etc etc

Musk is a dumb man's idea of clever and Trump is a weak man's idea of strong, so you are weak and stupid like all trumpanzees.
