Brought to you by the illegal aliens Obama invited in.
Just part of the price of letting the third world come here at will . . .
“more than 85 percent of those who have contracted pertussis all had preventative shots.”
Then what good are the shots?
Maybe it will hit the “compromised” immune systems of the states Gaystapo members particularly hard.
Yes, I am being vindictive. Righteously so.
I cannot say what I really think should be done with the people in government who are calling shots today.
An oldie (also your thread), but a goodie from 2010:
Whooping Cough Declared An Epidemic In Calif
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/2540308/posts
Message here...........stay out of California. Of course that message goes for a lot of the US.
Just illegals bringing in the diseases Americans refuse to do
I won’t be surprised when malaria migrates into California from our southern neighbors.
(I would like to mention that just a few days ago, Sheriff Joe Arpaio warned of epidemics coming to the US because of the flood of illegal alien children.)
In infants younger than 1 year of age who get pertussis, about half are hospitalized. The younger the infant, the more likely treatment in the hospital will be needed. Of those infants who are hospitalized with pertussis about:
1 in 4 (23%) get pneumonia (lung infection)
1 or 2 in 100 (1.6%) will have convulsions (violent, uncontrolled shaking)
Two thirds (67%) will have apnea (slowed or stopped breathing)
1 in 300 (0.4%) will have encephalopathy (disease of the brain)
1 or 2 in 100 (1.6%) will die.
The most common complications in another study of adults with pertussis were:
Weight loss (33%)
Loss of bladder control (28%)
Passing out (6%)
Rib fractures from severe coughing (4%)
The phrase, “Made in China” comes to mind.
Damn illegal Canucks!
Some people just can’t hack it....
