In response, we should just allow anybody to cross our borders without even the slightest form of screening.

Mumps Makes a Comeback, Even Among the Vaccinated
Last year, 6,000 cases were reported to the CDC
The mumps vaccine was issued in 1967, but there have been 'break throughs' despite vaccination.

Herd immunity.

If enough hippie parents don’t vaccinate, they risk the health of all our kids.

We need to give thanks to the America Hating, Piece of Work, Mooselimb, Imposter Obama for bringing all of these diseases, which BTW we had not seen one case of TB, Mumps, whooping cough for a long, long time.

That America Hating, Imposter Obama was really special!!!

Also, our Congress is so special also for not stopping this madness when they could have but they were missing their gonads.

Of course, we have to thank that useless Paul Ryan who happens to be Speaker of the People's House and gutless McConnell.

With friends like these 2 who needs enemies!

Hah! I say we do what you say and bring in thousands more Ebola and Plague infected individuals to all major urban centers and then blame the crisis on Christian parents who believe in delayed vaccinations.

This idiocy always comes back on us Christian parents who decide to postpone, or not vaccinate, because of faith based reasons. You mindless goons always blame us, when the problem is open borders. My guns keep us safe. Try coming to force us into vaccinate. I will give you my address you limp wristed gutless parasite.

You don’t have to be a Christian to see that vaccination has become just another form of medical imperialism.

Plague is already happening in Southern Africa (because somehow citizens of Madagascar think it’s a good idea to dig up corpses and dance with them) — it’s Pneumonic Plague, which is a worse respiratory manifestation of the same bacteria that cause Bubonic Plague.

We should be safe from Smallpox — my understanding was that after it was eradicated, the USA and USSR each kept one of the remaining two samples. So if it gets back into the wild, it means either the Russians let it back out... or we did.

This concerns me as I still need my MMR vaccine. All my prior illnesses and immunizations are now nil since my donor stem cell transplant. Not sure when I’ll be able to get my MMR again since it’s a live vaccine and my immune system is still quite poor.

....add me to that BAD case of mumps also.
I had them as a adult and mother of two children.
They dropped on me into the pancreas gland and made me violently ill.
Mumps are nothing to sluff off as a minimal disease.
It took me 3 months to get up and on my feet.

If the vaccine is effective,please explain how an unvaccinated person puts a vaccinated person at risk.
