You God damn idiot. The immigrant fricks at the border are bringing in measles. You need to go to a death camp for being a fricking sheep that gobbles up the propaganda machine 24/7.
Take a fricking Xanax, Jesus.
If they're coming in at the border, a properly vaccinated population won't get sick. It's a mixture of both.

Someone with measles.

While that may be partly true, if a population is vaccinated, and someone brings it in from somewhere else, nothing happens to the vaccinated population.
That’s not how vaccines work. A vaccine doesn’t make everyone completely immune to an illness. Only a percentage of people. When everyone together has a very low chance of getting the illness, it eventually dies away, bc it has no source to come from (or very few). But when a large population of unvaccinated carriers moves in and exposes people, there’s a constant source of the illness. Vaccinated people then are exposed repeatedly, and that low chance becomes enough of a chance that some people eventually contract the illness
Edit: google herd immunity and the success rate of vaccines. If we stopped harboring illegals, the people that are not immune from the vaccine would still be safe
Success rates are 85-95%. Which means if everyone in the US is vaccinated, 15-45 million are not immune and never will be. Their lives are at risk bc we are allowing diseased individuals into our borders and exposing our people

Are you retarded? This has nothing to do with anti vax people
Your chances of getting the measles are higher today directly because of anti-vaxxers and illegal immigration.

Most Central American countries, where a lot of the immigrants are currently coming from, have around the same or higher vaccination rates than the US.

The USA is middle of the pack for vaccination rates compared to Central America.

Got measles a year after getting the vaccine. 4th grade.
It was pretty awesome. Felt fine, couldn't go to school for two weeks.
Wonder if that means I'm good to go?

Kill us all? I had the measles as a kid and it was no big deal. I don't understand the angst.

Well shite. All my life I've woke up and thought, it's going to suck today, but at least I'm not getting measles.

CDC admitted this is an issue due to immigrants, not "anti-vaxxers" (which is incorrect anyway to call most of them that).
Not to mention, there is nothing to fear from measles. It is like chickenpox. Notice the lack of reports of people dying from it.

Got the Mumps after getting the vaccine as well. It was not awesome, I did not feel fine. I still remember the pain in my cheeks to this day, especially when drinking something sweet like juice. Considering this is coming up on 40 years ago, that is still seared into my memory.
ETA: Get your kids vaccinated BECAUSE the vaccine doesn't always work. The 80+% who it does work for reduce the chance of it getting passed around and you catching it. Herd Immunity.

That may be. But it’s been shown that illegals have a much higher disease rate. Possibly part of the reason they are coming to USA, where we have better healthcare, and many receive free healthcare

Wrong.
It can have severe complications (pneumonia, encephalitis, deafness). Some of these can kill, especially in children younger than 5.

Thank you...
For setting the record straight, amigo.
Oh and...
Yeah right. Sure.

I had it when I was 13. Teacher said you look bad -I said just my acne. I was the first and 24 people in that class (I went to public school) went home by the next day. Two weeks and by the time I was able to return 120 in my high school had contacted it.
No idea where I got it but I was patient zero.
