Rockland County to Declare Measles State of Emergency, Ban Unvaccinated Minors From Public Spaces

Additionally, some parents are holding 'measels parties' so as to expose children, thus giving them immunity. The Commissioner says that knowingly infected persons should face some legal accountability, and they are looking into that possibility.

we need to accept more “refugees”

[monkeybrau]

Illegal immigrants excepted.

[WKUHilltopper]

Celebrate illegal aliens from sh*thole 3rd world countries...

[ConservativeMind]

So they are quarantined.

[DesertRhino]

Dirty people, coming from countries where they don’t vaccinate.

Measles outbreak in Michigan too. Just ordered some MMR. Hard to get at this point because of a run on supply.

[WKUHilltopper]

Yeah. Let the US deal with it.

[bingoplayer]

Ban illegal aliens!!

ConservativeMind :" So they are quarantined."

Apparently not,.. hence the virus is spreading.
A voluntary quarantine is obviously not working,
perhaps an 'enforced quarantine' may be in order .

"You had your measles shot, kid?"

"uhhh…...yeah"

Okay then. Have a nice day.

"The cause of these outbreaks is obvious! Clearly the President is infecting these poor people!"

[DJ MacWoW]

So liberals have found a golden trigger to set conservatives at one another's throats and protect their chosen group, illegals.

This is OK. Safer than the vaccine if it’s a mild case.

[pfflier]

Doesn’t this discriminate against illegal aliens?

MMR vaccine
Two doses of MMR vaccine are about 97% effective at preventing
measles; one dose is about 93% effective. Children may also get
MMRV vaccine, which protects against measles, mumps, rubella,
and varicella (chickenpox). This vaccine is only licensed for use
in children who are 12 months through 12 years of age.

...and encourage more tinfoil hat antivaxxers not to immunize their kids.

My kid sister and I were sent to my cousin’s house when he had the measles. We spent the night and came down with them later that week. This was common practice in the late 40s.
