I am not surprised. I am not antivax, but the antivaxers weren’t having these outbreaks until the measles variant was brought in here by illegals. They’ve brought in a whole host of diseases.

Two different things. In the past we didn’t let sick people into the country. My ancestors came over when this was common practice at Ellis.

Not always illegals.
