Another plandemic to ruin Trump presidency
I swear if this mutates because of something as dumb as raw milk...
Also people aren't gonna comply nearly at the rate of the initial covid outbreak in the remote chance it's needed. We are fooked if it mutates person to person.
Meanwhile ...
At least 24 cases of measles have been detected in Gaines County, Texas, the state's Department of State Health Services (DSHS) said this week as it warned that additional cases were likely given the highly infectious nature of the disease.
None of the 24 infected individuals had been immunized with the measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine, the health authority said. Two of them are adults, and the other 22 are children. Nine patients were hospitalized.

Excellent news. This will help naturally immunize the population.
I have never understood the logic of that. Wouldn't it be better to not get any of those diseases in the first place?
Vaczinez iz stoopid!

Not if it admitted that someone told me what to do

Someone in my family is clearly pro-vax their whole life. Saw Polio and the subsequent vaccination campaign as a child. Recognizes the success. Gets her Flu & Pneumonia shot religiously
Totally anti-COVID vaccine. Feels lied to - only lasts six months - no one should have to take it. When I point out that the Flu/other seasonal vaccines are the same. Just repeats more talking points. It's amazing to me how someone not on social media and that understands the benefits of vaccines is so dug in. To someone's point above - its going to get worse.
Does anyone know if vaccinated adults should refresh their vaccines periodically knowing that we may not be able to rely on herd immunity anymore?

With the current and future state of things, I highly recommend asking your PCP to order titers for measles

I went to India in 2019 and 2023 and had all my vaccine status checked and had a whole list brought up to current including measles.

Went to India too and the long tray of needles they brought out, hoo boy.
Good thing we just fired literally the entire 1,400 person staff of the group responsible for tracing disease outbreaks for the CDC.
If you didn't need encouragement to check out your vaccine statuses, we are working on un-eradicating some whoppers.
"We" didn't fire anybody.

Update: I asked my PCP about need for booster. They ordered blood work to test if booster needed. So I guess I'll know shortly.
I started drinking colloid silver again. I'm good.

Here we go again.
Don't worry. It will be dealt with at least as well as last time.

Whether you're referring to government response or public response, I wholeheartedly disagree
Health officials said the measles outbreak that started in West Texas has sickened mostly children. Almost all the cases are in unvaccinated people, with 18 being hospitalized. Officials said people in central Texas may have been exposed too.

First unvaccinated child died in Texas. An avoidable tragedy

All lives matter ... as long as they're still in the womb.
This morning we're watching a red tailed hawk sitting in my neighbors driveway. She's called several people as to what to do and was told to stay away as the raptor probably has bird flu. Basically let the bird die, wear an N95 and gloves, then double bag in Clorox and disinfect the clothes and wash right away.
No sanctuary wants to rescue as will affect birds already in the shelter.
Shame. That's a majestic bird. But probably for the best.
There have been I think at least two eagles in the Chicago area that have died or had to be put down due to bird flu. As well as shore birds.
