How to stop it? Build the wall!

[Revel]

Its coming back alright. If I were to make a movie about it then I would call it:

“It Came From Across The Border”.

[Lurkinanloomin]

All these diseases we had eradicated that are making a comeback couldn’t have anything to do with the millions of illegal aliens, could it?

[Tzimisce]

It’s called “ope borders”.

How do you stop it?

Move to a posh, gated, liberal community.

[patriot torch]

Seems funny to hear them crying wolf now, after they’ve advocated open borders and denounced any mention of an “emergency”

The spread is not the fault of those who choose not to vaccine, but rather the choice to spread the disease once the “disease” crosses the border!

[napscoordinator]

Probably so. But those that don’t get vaccines are playing Russian roulette.

[gcparent]

I had measles in 1961.

[SkyDancer]

That plus a myriad of other conquered diseases.

[stormhill]

Whatever. I was born (way) before ‘63. Didn’t get vaxxed and never got it. Yeah, I know. Anecdotal.
Like I said, whatever.

This I’ll say, though; if vaccines are as safe as claimed, remove the legal immunity enjoyed by vaccine manufacturers imposed in the 80’s.

[Revel]

A lot of people had measles in 1961. And your point is?

[MayflowerMadam]

“I had measles in 1961.”

Back in the ‘50s and ‘60s, I didn’t know anyone who didn’t get measles. I vaguely remember Mom putting me in bed in a dark room for a few days when I had it.

[Secret Agent Man]

Stop letting in sick and diseased foreigners carrying nonnaitve US strains of measles. And other exotic diseases like chagas.

[RetiredTexasVet]

There is a 100% correlation between measles, whooping cough, mumps, etc. outbreaks in the US and uncontrolled illegal immigration.

[E Pluribus Bellum]

Stop letting in sick and diseased foreigners carrying nonnaitve US strains of measles. And other exotic diseases like chagas.

Yeah, but if we did that the Democtats wouldn’t be able to outvote us, not as quickly anyway. Birth rates being what they are the war is already lost in the long run, though.

[Ciaphas Cain]

A series of calculated fuel-air strikes along the border would be both deterrent and sterilization.

[Mom MD]

Or just get the vaccine

[Mom MD]

And unvaccinated populations

[DennisR]

Hm. Your odds of death playing rr are significantly higher than not getting vaccinated, no?

[upchuck]

Interesting... these words do NOT appear in the New York Slimes article:

illegal
immigrant
alien
border

I'm 75 years old ... as a kid, my siblings & I, had measles, mumps, chicken pox, etc., sort of what you did in those days.
Remember getting a polio shot at some point ... later, in the Marine Corps shots for everything imaginable ... we were warned not to lose our shot cards ... otherwise, you would go thru the whole process again.
No one ever lost their shot card ... ever.
