Officials didn’t disclose the ages or vaccination status of the two cases, but they are urging parents to vaccinate their children.

The news comes as New Jersey has issued a measles alert in response to three confirmed cases in Bergen County.

According to NYC’s health department, the two cases are unrelated, with one occurring earlier this year

My lib family members are blaming it all on anti-Vaxers.

I keep pointing out everyone could be unvaxed if no one was carrying the diseases. In this case illegals bringing back ones that were nearly wiped out.

Is this supposed to be a crisis?? It used to be that almost every kid got the measles and other “childhood diseases.” A friend of got it later during army combat training — and just kept on going so he wouldn’t get his training re-cycled.

It’s not just kids. Unvaccinated pregnant women can catch measles resulting in significant birth defects.

Amazing isn’t it? RFK jr says vaccinations shouldn’t be mandatory and 24 hours later there’s measles cases breaking out all over and it’s obviously because RFK halted all vaccinations!! Right?!

That’s German measles. Back in the day, mothers held German measles parties for girls.

Amazing timing, right?

The press is so transparent!!!

Will they figure out who released the virus?

I’d be more interested in the immigration status.

Horrors! Measles! As bad as the black plague, leprosy, and...and..

All kids used to get measles and the death rate was far less than it is for vaccines. We got it, got over it, and now lifetime immunity. Same thing with mumps and chicken pox. I’ve seen the charts. By the 1950s, there were practically no deaths from these childhood illnesses due to improved hygiene and nutrition.

There is a large ultra orthodox community in NYC.

They don’t vax.

If this gets into that community, it will result in deaths.

I think last week I heard reports of some cases on the West Coast, and wondered how long it would take to show up on the east Coast.

i had both I don’t think I had the German Measles, but remember lying in bed many hours in near darkness as the light can damage the eyes with the other kind. Vitamin A is suggested as helpful to protect. I also remember chicken pox, and how much I wanted to scratch the scabs but did not want to get scars by doing that.
