Most people who get measles have not been vaccinated.
In the U.S., most outbreaks are sparked by travelers who picked up the virus in countries where measles is more common.
The measles vaccine is 97% effective, according to the CDC.
Measles is spread through the air when an infected person coughs or sneezes, and it is extremely contagious.
The number of infections already exceeds last years total
and we are only three months into the new year.
The CDC states the vaccine is 97% effective.
More diseases are scheduled to cross the border in weeks.
But we can't say that out loud now can we? We'd be branded a hatemonger!
It’s no surprise when you let truckloads of illegals into this country, and you have no idea what diseases or parasites they carry. They’re walking time bombs.
0bama tried to do this with ebola.
Even when measles doesn’t kill a child, their immune system resets at zero. The mortality rate for people who recover from measles is much higher than normal for years to come.
387 cases of measles.
Roughly 330 MILLION people in the country.
Anti-vaxxers are clearly going to be the death of ALL of us. /sarc
Nice try, Big Pharma.
I would say it's nice try, Big Congress. They are desperately trying to pin this on anti vaxxers instead of the THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS of unvaccinated illegal aliens flooding into this country and bringing third world diseases with them.
Yes, the crux of the problem.
They deliberately allow infected in now to take medical resources away from citizens, to swamp the system, and to blame people who dont want chemical cocktails injected into them.

Records are being set for ille....er, I mean undocumented aliens. The communist establishment party wants open borders without any barriers whatsoever. Rather then admitting this open borders policy has spread transmittable diseases, they instead build this false dichotomy that the real cause is anti-vaxers.
The problem is not antivacine caravans, it’s open borders caravans!
So the drive bys seek to control the narrative by blaming the antivaxers!
This is the way the left operates. If teen pregnancy and std’s are running rampant, increase the number of abortions and hand out condoms. If drug addictions are uncontrollable, hand out needles. If homelessness is an issue, blame it on the wealthy. If there are uninsured, blame it on America’s healthcare industry. If our schools are failing, deny school choice. If big phama has staggering numbers of students on mind altering drugs, blame it on the Second Amendment when they go off the deep end. When our budget deficit becomes unsustainable, blame it on tax cuts and increase spending. When the seasons change, blame it on industry. And when illegal border crossing are at record setting pace, shut down ice, tear down fences and get rid of borders.
See, there really is an answer, we just need to be told what the cause is and where to find the answer.
There! Fixed it! :-)
>>>And I wonder where the measles is coming from?
The NY outbreak began in the early fall, with public health officials tying it to an ongoing measles outbreak in Israel. Hasidic Jews often travel to Israel for the High Holidays. Some also make annual pilgrimages to Ukraine, to the grave of a legendary Hasidic rabbi; Ukraine has Europe’s worst ongoing measles outbreak.
Build the wall.
