The United States recorded 71 new measles cases last week, a 13 percent increase
as the country faces its second-worst outbreak of the disease in almost two decades,
federal health officials said on Monday.

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said it had recorded 626 cases of the highly contagious
and sometimes deadly disease in 22 states as of April 19, the highest rate of infection in five years.

There is not a single case of autism tied to a vaccine.

The whole autism thing is a myth.

If you don’t want to get vaccines that is fine. But when they get sick, your entire family should be quarantined until no one carries the virus.

And, yes its called a childhood disease. My brother lost hearing in one of his ears and was made infertile because of measles—so while it might be considered “childhood”, there are life long implications to going without a vaccine. And no child should have to go through that if it is not necessary.

And..it is not necessary.

There are at least 330 million people walking about the country at present. You can probably find at least a couple hundred who have leprosy or scurvy.

One thing to note is freepers is this is a 100% Democrat push

Rick Perry was willing to participate. For a price.

The unprecedented total immunity from civil liability was a George W. Bush operation.

I love to bash Democrats too, but let's give credit where credit is due.

Because the people doing the research don't WANT to find a connection.

And the people who want to believe there is a connection, will believe it.

There is a limit to what you can force a free people to do. Unless it ls a life and death situation the government had better not knock on my door. Funny back in the early 1980s that when they could have put all the AIDS carriers in quarantine when the disease hadn’t spread that far, they didn’t because of the gay Nazi politics.

As someone who worked in the pharmaceutical industry for 30 years I believe that the industry will fudge the numbers if they can. Some of the most ignorant and blind people I have come across is the underpaid staff of the FDA who look but do not see. Not crooked , but blind to what they’re looking at.

I don’t know if vaccines have caused autism. Nor am I sure they haven’t
