From the web page: There are no vaccination requirements for visitors to the United States. The Disney outbreak is almost certainly not from an American, but from a tourist.
So don’t get the live vaccine. Pretty easy, really.
Nowhere in that article is any claim made that vaccinated persons will get measles from unvaccinated persons.
Obviously you haven’t been paying attention.
Theoretically, there’s no such thing as full immunity, even if you’ve had the disease. The claim that vaccines aren’t 100% perfect, therefore we shouldn’t use them, is idiotic. It’s like saying you shouldn’t have a life preserver in a boat because you can still drown with one on.
I’m truly shocked at the number of FReepers that are falling for this.
I think vaccinations work. That said, I no longer trust the government and their cronyism with companies that make the vaccines. Not all good intentions can be trusted to be good these days.
Anything could be in those vaccines, anything. And if it were bad, will the people that forced those on people have any price to pay?
I think not.
“If vaccinations are the golden ticket, what do you have to worry about? Your kids are vaccinated?”
No medication and no vaccination is 100% effective.
Thus, if one happens to be among the 1.5% of the population that is not protected by the measles vaccine, they will get the measles if exposed as will those who are not vaccinated.
If everyone is vaccinated or even if 95% are vaccinated, measles will not be able to spread, even if introduced.
It is interesting that it is the older folks that favor vaccines. The reason being, in all likely hood, due to the fact we were routinely vaccinated in school. My mother used to be terrified when polio season came around.
Our current vaccination rate is about 91%.
From the CDC, yet Barry has allowed Illegal Immigrants to enter this Country and Schools without a SHRED of documentation.
“Only doses of vaccine with written documentation of the date of receipt should be accepted as valid. Self-reported doses or a parental report of vaccination is not considered adequate documentation. A healthcare provider should not provide an immunization record for a patient unless that healthcare provider has administered the vaccine or has seen a record that documents vaccination. Persons who lack adequate documentation of vaccination or other acceptable evidence of immunity should be vaccinated. “

Please stop wearing your seat belts. They don't always work. Please don't obey traffic lights: sometimes other drivers drive right through them. Please don't stop at stop signs: a lot of illegals don't stop at them. Please don't wear a life jacket. You can still drown with one on.
Vaccines is dangerous!
So is warshing yo hands!
I ain’t seed nothin bout no germs in The Bible!
Many are egg based. A child with allergies to egg reacts. For years I would get a reaction on the mandatory flue vaccine. Recently they’ve come out with one that doesn’t use latex on the needle. No longer have a problem
Good points!

Great point.
These people are saying, “I knew someone who died in a car crash and he was wearing a seatbelt, so therefore, I will never wear a seatbelt.”
Or
“Cancer treatment is not 100% effective and because of that, I will not treat my cancer.”
The US is 91%
Mexico is 89%
Our measles problem is not from Mexico, but from America.
