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

Infectious Disease Ping ( mumps -virus)

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.

Mumps Makes a Comeback, Even Among the Vaccinated

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!

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.

I had to have an MMR booster in the early 1990’s. This has been coming since then. These viruses mutate. Kinda like the lefties do.

Three years ago, there was a mumps outbreak in the town I live in.

Of course, the Scott County Health department blamed it all on the unvaccinated kids, when ALL of the cases were among children and adults who HAD the vaccine.

Rather than say “Hmm... Maybe the vaccine isn’t protecting like we think it is”, they said “The vaccine only works if everyone is vaccinated, otherwise an unvaccinated carrier can make everyone sick! BAN THE NON VAXXERS!”

"My mumps, my mumps, my mumps."

It could be Fergie's comeback song.
