The CDC says Afghanistan has the 7th highest number of measles cases in the world
--------
Fort McCoy Army Base in Wisconsin identified a case of the measles this week as it brings in thousands of Afghan refugees as part of the mass evacuation effort in the wake of the Taliban takeover of Kabul.
An internal government email, viewed by Fox News, said that the base confirmed a case of the measles on Sunday.
"All those who had been in contact with the infected person at base have been isolated, and post-exposure prophylaxis and inoculations are in process," the notice said.
Separately, a senior U.S. government official confirmed to Fox News that officials identified a single measles case as part of what they called a robust health screening process.
The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) describes measles as a "highly contagious" virus that can be spread by coughing, sneezing, and by people breathing contaminated air or touching infected surfaces and then their faces.
It says that the virus is so contagious that if one person has it, up to 90% of the people close to that person who are not immune will also be infected, and that the virus can live for up to two hours in an airspace even after an infected person leaves the area.
According to the CDC, Afghanistan has the seventh highest number of measles cases in the world.
The document said that due to the disease's contagious nature, Fort McCoy was not receiving evacuees "at this time" and was working to procure the necessary vaccines. However, a spokesperson for Task Force McCoy said that the base was still accepting Afghans, of which it can support 13,000.

See, see! Trump’s racist and homophobic tweets again!!
Guess what else they’re going to blame on the unvaccinated!
They should vaccinated.
Unvaccinated Americans will be blamed.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.
More to come America. More to come.
Let’s go get about 10-20000’more. Maybe the Pineapple Express can get together again and bring a few more thousand in. And so many on here can talk about how great they are and what patriotic Americans they are. Doing the job CornPop won’t.
But when the dust settles and there’s another CornPop-fire to capture our attention, all those applauding better hope these savages don’t end up in their neighborhoods, their kids schools, and won’t complain about their taxes going through the roof to pay for it all.
I sure hope that they are all getting the standard vaccines required before entering the US
(should have gotten them at Ramstein for that matter):

Oh, that’s just grand! Now, the military will need to be quaranteened and kept away from their families for a while.
I think with the measles, you have to get rid of any clothing that may have come in direct contact with the sick person.
So will these afghan super spreaders be quarenteened or would that violate THEIR civil rights?
Just great. That’s Dulles Airport.
Destroying the health of decent Americans is a small price to pay for the cause of multicultural diversity and inclusion politics.
Wonder how many have TB...?
Just wait for the other more fun diseases from the southern border break out like Polio
Their masking-up techniques match what I see among the US public...
I remember obama and Biden allowing people south of the border and all kinds of diseases we no had showed up and was killing Americans.
Biden is repeating this murder.
