Illegals are bringing a forgotten disease across the border

#1

Just one more reason we need to secure the border. Use the Military and shoot on sight any border jumpers. This amounts to biological warfare in my book.........

How to protect yourself from a forgotten disease now coming across the border

Physicians witness first hand how infectious diseases can spread more easily now

As a physician, witnessing the resurgence of measles in the United States has been deeply concerning. Once considered eradicated in the country, measles has made a startling comeback in recent years, most recently in the heavily crowded migrant shelters of Chicago and other small pockets in the United States. The uptick in cases no doubt is fueled by a combination of factors ranging from vaccine hesitancy to congregation of people with low immunization coverage.

I have contacts at DOH.  They have a high likelihood of carrying Syphilis as well.
My fellow southpaw Mark Brunell will probably always be my favorite Jaguar.

You sure wiki wasn't your source?

Like maybe under the Communicable Diseases of Public Health Significance header?

Antivaxxers are not helping and measles isn't the only one.

I read that Paul Alexander, AKA, The Man in the Iron Lung died last week. He was 78, contracted polio in 1952 at age 6 and lived the majority of his life in an iron lung. Polio was officially eradicated from this country in 1979 with sporadic events, the most recent in 2022 when an unvaccinated traveler tested positive in Rochester, NY. 

I don't understand why parents don't vaccinate against measles, mumps, Rubella, polio, etc. Sure most all citizens of this country are vaccinated but all it takes in an encounter with travelers and immigrants who aren't vaccinated for a problem to happen.

Because the MMR has a lot of weird [BLEEP] in it.
