Ok, it is possible for the news media to cover this. Sure there's protests, outrageous ICE activity everywhere, bad weather, a president and his administration's insane acts and behavior. There has to be a way to squeeze in 5 minutes of updates on measles outbreaks every hour or so.

It's a shame we don't have a National Health Dept. to get these highly contagious airborne viruses under control. But the Repugnant Nazi Party has made this a SHITHOLE NATION.

D’ya think our having an anti-vax whack-job overseeing our nation’s public health and research has something to do with this already out of control spike in preventable disease?

who in the right mind puts a 14 year herion addict with a brain eating worm in charge of the country's health?? That person needs to have their sexual organs removed

WHO recently announced that the UK has lost measles elimination status. The ignorance on this is quite prevalent over decades. My mother withheld us from the vaccine in school. She regrets it now of course and that mistake won't happen for her grandchildren.

But gee, thank goodness those unvaccinated kids are safe from whatever remotely possible harm that vaccine might have caused? (Sarcasm) We can only hope they didn't pass measles to infants too young to be vaccinated yet.

Parents get mixed messages about vaccines, that is the problem. They don't want to harm their children. Have to blame our horrible hhs secretary rfk and the lots he has installed. He is a conspiracy theorist, egenicist, has zero medical or public health background. He is a quack, plain and simple.

They are either incredibly stupid and/or willfully uneducated or mean spirited in regards to their kids to leave them unvaccinated. What is wrong with people that chance their kids getting sick when a simple jab will prevent it?

An anti-vaxxer with a highschool education is an easy target for ridicule, but a solution requires asking how they got there. Wakefield's fraud was published in the Lancet, and protected by the medical establishment for a decade - and that's *typical* Thin White Line behaviour. Don't look up.

Oh the MAHA, anti-vax morons. If you read even a rudimentary description of measles on wiki, you understand how nearly 100% vaccination rates are required to prevent large outbreaks. This is what the US public health system used to excel at. RFK and his crew are responsible for this mess.

One to three out of every 1,000 children who become infected with measles will die from respiratory and neurological complications including pneumonia, encephalitis, and blindness.

When you have a moron running the show, this is the beginning of that disaster. And to think a doctor actually voted for this!!! Hope he feels like he was taken on this one!!!

As I understand it, anti Vax folks aren't concerned w/ more cases as they think measles is just a normal childhood illness & getting it is how you build immunity. They even throw parties to intentionally expose their kids.

You didn't see shit, you mindlessly let Republicans tell you what to believe without ever checking for yourself. Biden improved border security after Trump's first term failure.

Biden increased the number of border agents and invested in surveillance tech along the border. The result was increased border apprehensions. You're a pathetic fool who falls for any fearmongering bullshit, the kind of dumbass who falls for a fake "border crisis" every single election.

In the era of Polio, a nation of crippled children grew up (most of them anyway). Now, some seventy years later, another generation is going to be blinded or deafened from an illness. Unlike with Polio, we have a vaccine and how to treat it When people ask me why education is important, this is why!

Surprise surprise . RFK has shamed his family and with the help of the thoughtless voters who elected to the felon in chief into office more folks will die from a disease which used to be under control. Thanks MAGA.
