It's not just the immigrants bringing it in that's the problem. It's also all the adults who refuse to be up to date on their boosters. The funny thing is that nearly all the pro-vaxxers aren't up to date! They want everyone else to get vaccinated so they don't have to.
No man, you're blaming the wrong people, just like the fucking MSM. In 2000 the CDC declared measles eradicated in the US....ERADICATED. The reason we're having measles outbreaks is not because people in the US aren't getting vaccinated, but because our current immigration policy is letting masses of people with the measles into this country from other countries rife with 19th century diseases.
You might as well blame people who don't have a fire extinguisher for the fire started by their neighbor Akbar who was just setup in paid for living quarters by the State Department. It's the same fucking thing!
It's more of the fucking same.....blame the American citizens, using them as the whipping boy, for what is entirely the product of immigration policy and the immigrants being brought in the US.
CDC tracks where this stuff comes from. It's no secret. Primarily it's being brought back to the US by US citizens and lawful residents who travel overseas to countries that have active measles cases. For example a US citizen who had visited the Philippines was the source of most of the measles cases in 2014. In 2011 most of the cases were from a US citizen who had traveled to France and caught measles there. These travelers are not up to date on their boosters. A secondary source is lawful tourists from other countries visiting the US. This was the source of nearly all the cases in 2015 which started at Disneyland and then rapidly spread across the country.
