Four years of unchecked illegal immigration will do it every damn time.

You mean the immigrants who didn't have to prove their vax status when entering the country?

Nobody has to prove their vaccination status when entering the country since the COVID pandemic ended, and then, it was only COVID.
Measles in 2026 isn't because of people who entered the country illegally in 2021-2025.
The incubation period... isn't 1-5 years.

You probably already know that's true.
You're just so committed to racism that blaming immigrants is more important to you than telling the truth.
Just like your dreamboy J.D. Vance and his eyeliner.

What a f*&^ing moron.

The measles vaccine is one of the most effective vaccines we've ever implemented.

These outbreaks wouldn't be happening if we had vaxx rates at the same place they were in the 2000's.

No matter how hard your stupid, bigoted, ignorant turd a&& tries, this falls on stupid, lazy, complacent Americans thinking they have a clue when they have not even the slightest prerequisite knowledge to make these kinds of decisions.

Yourself included.

I suppose cavalierly closing down major elements of the CDC had nothing to do with this outbreak. Anti-vaccination proponents will undoubtedly love the reemergence of old school pathogens like small pox and polio. JFC...we're a really stupid species.

If you came in illegally you didn't have to prove it, what kind of stupid statement is this.

Measles in 2026 isn't because of people who entered the country illegally in 2021-2025.

Well this still doesn't mean its not an illegal/legal immigrant. Given that there is no "slow burn" its introduction across the country, in to the US is NEW, thus immigrant related. The only way a slow burn happens is with reintroduction from NEW people that are contagious into the vaccinated population.

LA county has a 66% vaccination rate.

You antivax morons are a danger to the immigrants.

The measles vaccine isn't the covid vaccine. There is no colonization with the measles vaccine.

97% of those that have contracted measles in LA didn't take the vaccine, and also the measles vaccine has a 3% failure to take rate.

Even with a 97% vaccination rate among kindergartners in LA, yet there are kindergartners being infected.

You have no idea what your talking about, and if it is your field of study, I suspect you are avoided for such expressing such unproven statements.
