More than 80 Ocean County residents were exposed to the measles at a private event in New York as the number of cases continues to widen, New Jersey health officials said.

Most of those exposed live in Lakewood, according to Dawn Thomas, a spokeswoman for the state health department.

The Ocean County health department didn’t mention where or when the event took place, but said Friday 86 people might have been infected. There were already 18 confirmed and six suspected cases of measles in Ocean County. People who might have been exposed to the highly contagious diseases are being contacted by health officials.

Because the Agenda 21 people who want to reduce the world population by 6,500,000,000 souls are pushing the meme that vaccinations are dangerous.

Can’t tell the public though.

And it used to be, the health department did this with other diseases as well but now with AIDS Pride, you don’t even have to tell a potential sex partner that you are HIV positive. Informed consent is a thing of the past.

Lots of vaccinated people still can get the measles. Vaccines don’t give I’m unity forever, and they don’t give total immunity to everyone.

If you are exposed to the measles, take as large doses daily of vitamin c as you can, injecting it would be best, and also vitamin A, which is not something to supplement, except in this case of exposure to or ill with the measles virus.

“pushing the meme that vaccinations are dangerous

Based on results, some are ineffective and some are dangerous... and too many are given at once

I’m not anti-vaccination, but we all know that foreigners are bringing diseases here that were all but eradicated. Oh, that was small minded and provincial of me! I’m sure anyone entering our country is fully vaccinated. Especially illegals. I hear it’s the last thing they do, before climbing over the wall!

New York's Orthodox Jewish community is battling measles outbreaks. Vaccine deniers are to blame.

What’s notable here is that all of the cases are occurring among unvaccinated or under-vaccinated Orthodox Jews, mainly children. When asked why people are opting out of vaccines, the city health department said anti-vaccine propagandists are distributing misinformation in the community.

Maybe I read the article too fast, but a “patient zero, is never given.

Measles, huh? Brought in by....what sort of immigrant? Are the legal ones still tested for disease?

Measles was eliminated in the US in 2000 — but outbreaks linked to vaccine refusal have been popping up in insular communities

OF COURSE IT’S TRUE!!!

It wouldn’t be racis’ otherwise...

(Or at least people would say ‘that’s simply not true, and here’s the data’ rather than resorting to screaming “RACIS’!”)

Lakewood NJ has the highest population of Orthodox Jews outside Brooklyn (in fact it might be higher then Brooklyn)

I live in the neighboring town, they wanted to build a Orthodox Jewish All Girls school here and they even asked for exception for the code required fire alarm/sprinkler system for religious reasons, if God wanted you to live, he would lead you out of the burning building was the reason.

Moodbat idiots is right.
