“You cannot get pneumonia from the vaccine. The shots only contain an extract of the pneumonia bacteria, not the actual bacteria that cause the illness. “

The vaccine only protects against two common bacterial pnemonia strains.

These diseases cannot be coming into USA over the southern border. After all, since House Democrats fully supported the funding of PDJT’s border wall, undocumented Democrats must pass a medical medical exam before they are allowed through that wall.

Oh, Wait!

Patriots must elect a new, patriot Congress in the 2020 elections that will not only promise to support PDJT’s vision for MAGA, but will also support Trump in finishing the people's wall, putting a stop to undocumented Democrats entering the country.

MAGA!

Many vaccines are derived from abortions.

I suppose you have another explanation for how we managed to completely eradicate measles in 1980, that doesn’t involve the measles vaccine?

And that this explanation also explains why it is now coming back, in communities of people from countries that were not vaccinated, and in places where anti-vaccination beliefs are higher?

So we now have 60 million vaccines? What good are they if they’re not used?

Thank you anti-vaxxers.


A few citizen anti vaxxers is no problem, but I’d bet my house that this problem is caused by the third world invasion....we were fine before unvetted foreigners started brining their diseases into this country.

As long as you never leave your own property that’s fine with me.

My view exactly but there are those like in NYC who won’t do the measles vaccinations.

>Patrick Henry would have been an anti-vaxxer

Don’t libel Patrick Henry!!! In fact, he acted against the modern anti-vaxxing position as much as was historically possible! As Gov. of VA during the revolutionary war, at Geo. Washington’s bequest, he signed new VA law to let Washington impose mandatory Variolation (smallpox vaccination’s more dangerous predecessor, Jennerian Vaccination not yet having been discovered,) upon the entire Continental Army. It worked and arguably saved the revolution. And I’m very proud that a cousin, then serving as Surgeon General, did much to implement that mandatory policy. It may well have been an even greater service to his country than his having earlier signed the Declaration.

Have the CDC, NIH and Surgeon General total staff of doctors and nurses transported to the Southern border and have them inoculate every illegal alien with measles, mumps, whooping cough, yellow fever, malaria, smallpox, cholera, etc. vaccines and quarantine everyone with TB, STDs, scabbies, etc.

Please note that the Obama admin had all the health professionals hired by the government for service by the border services sign NDAs to keep the public from discovering the massive amount of illegals coming across the border with horrendous diseases.

Infectious Disease ping - measles (Update)

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports 695 measles cases in 22 states.

"This is the greatest number of cases reported in the United States since measles was eliminated from this country in 2000,"
says a CDC statement issued late Wednesday.
The primary source of measles are 'travelers' who have come from foreign nations.

"The longer these outbreaks continue,
the greater the chance measles will again get a sustained foothold in the United States," the CDC said.

Seems like the “anti-vaxxers are only harming themsleves...and I’d wager that, like when i was a child in the ‘50s, most of the measles cases don’t do any more harm than what the occasional bad reaction to a vax does to others.

As always, people don’t read the literature. To much emotion, to little facts.

Why?

We were not allowed to quarantine POSSIBLE EBOLA carriers. Why this reaction now?
