The CDC says 78 new cases of measles were reported in the US last week. That's at least 465 this year for a disease that the US considered eliminated in 2000.

At least 465 cases of measles have been reported in the United States since January 1, according to the latest numbers shared by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on Monday.

That's 78 more cases than the number reported last week and includes cases reported to the CDC by state health departments as of April 4.Florida, Indiana, Massachusetts and Nevada reported their first cases of measles this year, bringing the total number of states reporting cases to 19.

Measles is endemic in many countries other than the United States. It is brought in when people who are unvaccinated or undervaccinated visit from a place where the virus is circulating or when people living in the United States visit such a place and return with an infection.Health officials have said that the proliferation of anti-vaccine rhetoric has, in part, fueled an increase in the number of measles and other vaccine-preventable diseases in the United States.

It’s called prevention. And not choosing to eat fucking garbage, which compromises your immune system to fight back any sickness. And measles can be cured, with herbs :)

VACCINATE YOUR CHILDREN. please and thank you☺️ YOU ARE ONLY HURTING THEM BY NOT VACCINATING THEM.

Vaccianate your damn kids!

Emmyrose88 we have to fight Tom now

Good for NY!

U.S Navy Acknowledges: MMR Vaccine Caused Viral Mumps Outbreak -

Fearalot Build that wall!!!

have they tried essential oils yet?

Terrible case of premature elimination.

Blame Jenny McCarthy

Why doesnt the CDC vaccinate all the border invaders when they are being processed for assylum and released into our country waiting for a court date then spreading 3rd world diseases? WednesdayMotivation WednesdayWisdom

'Eliminated' because of no transmission for 12 months. That's not eradication lol. 2000 was almost 2 decades ago. Before and after that, there have always been fluctuating outbreaks.

500 people isn't even a percentage of United States of America population! No breakout,plauge,or crisis just side effects of those Dr prescribed vaccines.

Acá en Chile no hemos sabido nada de eso o es muy poca la informacion publicada..

Cc صفاء الهاشم

Williamsburg?...Changing my tinder radius

Not saying I hate kids but this is why I always wash myself after a kid is near me or I am near a kid friendly place because they aren't keen at keeping their hands washed. Don't be near kids.

I prefer the side effects of measles-pneumonia, blindness, brain swelling, than my kid getting autism. Cause autism is the worst thing to happen to my kid.

Illegal immigration has caused this

So if it was eliminated, how did it get back here?

Not vaccinating your children is child abuse.

Viral encephalitis.

How much money 'big farma' makes, using people life and health? :(

airmaxanhoodies The Christian Taliban is a domestic terrorist organization

Lmao yo wtf i cant though ima anti-vacc family guess ill pay a fine KEK

This should only be affecting people who haven't been vaccinated right? If that's the case then aren't the antivaxxers the only group that is at risk right now? Seems like they walked themselves into this mess. 😷

“There were 285 cases of measles in New York.... community” no one has died .... are you trying to prevent something that the human immune system has evolved to fight against? Or are you saying the human immune system is a failure?

Parents please do us all a favor and vaccinate your kids.

Way to Go Jenny McCarthy...

Stop letting immigrants bring diseases to the US

Isn’t this the beginning of I Am Legend?

You have a right to not vaccinate your kid, society has a right to nail your door shut with you inside.

And I suppose that being invaded by individuals from countries where the measles have not been eradicated has nothing to do with the outbreak.

VACCINATE YOUR KIDS

steve27572609

Gee, let me think for a minute. Maybe the HOARDS OF PEOPLE INVADING OUR COUNTRY?!

Maybe if people Vaccinated their fucking kids

Y’all should pray to god just Incase

AidanRGallagher Goddamn antivaxers making the medical scientists’ jobs harder-

What else is coming across our borders?

Glad my mom let me get all my shots lol

The world is becoming parodixally more advanced and stupider at the same time. Vaccinate your kids or pay 1000s of dollars or better yet get jail time because you're a child abuser.

There are people out there who don't believe science and think vaccines cause autism. They would seriously rather have a dead child than an autistic child. What kind of sick people do that?

vaccinate yo kids

So ppl really just out here... just MMR free?... Catching measles 😑 ICant

Science is your friend.

Anti vaxxers at work again...

Vaccinate your kids🤨

heartofmel Conservatives don’t believe in vaccines, climate change, renewable energy or frankly any type of science. Unfortunately their idiotic beliefs also affect the rest of us.

MsLolaOh It’s mostly rich white people putting us in this predicament SMH

Or stop vaccinating diseases that arent deadly.. like chicken pox. Me and my family had it along with my cousin.. we lived. Same ass measles. I also had mumps. Oh look still alive!!

How many undocumented unvaccinated individuals are crossing that border every day? Since 2000? I feel it is sad for the Gov to mandate something that may or may NOT work. Even more saddening is people would prefer this Gov give felonies for expressing your individual freedom. Wow

WhitfordBradley Any parent not vaccinating their children should be in jail for endganering public health and safety!! The jury is back and vaccines do not cause autism!! Ignorance fanatics!!’

In a couple weeks, everyone will be fine. So ...

chrislhayes Anti-vaxxers. Gotta love 'em. Much like realDonaldTrump they know better than the experts...based on something they saw somewhere. Both they and he don't give a $!+ about the damage they inflict on others. So damned selfish.

Screw vaccination! Spread the disease!

Isn’t it a shame, a group of antivaxers decided vaccines cause autism can have more influence than educated physicians. Now we are having health emergencies. Dierde Imus, Jenny McCarthy (actress, nude playboy model) are promoters of Anti Vaccines. WakeUpScienceIsBasedOnFacts

Feel like this is a good place to post this

Yeah but what about the WEASELS case

Let’s bring in more migrants with all their wonderful diseases.

chrislhayes It's thanks to the anti-science 'ant-vaxxers.' Their selfish (though self-defeating) zealotry knows no bounds.

JennyMcCarthy hmmm...

Vaccinate your damn kids!

Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain Where’s the panic here? More than 587 cases have been confirmed in the U.S., mostly in New York City, New Jersey and Chicago,

If only there was a vaccine for that— oh wait... Anti-vaxxers are f****** jerks! Vaccinate your damn kids!!! Have consideration for others especially people with compromised immune systems.

If you have the vac then why would you get sick from someone who doesnt

NYwonk In other words - right wing nationalists may be helping spread the anti-vaxx meme; in order to injure the USA

chrislhayes The peddlers of ignorance and gullibility must be gloating over their success.

chrislhayes I have a serious question. I’m not an anti-vaccinator, both of my children have all their shots. If you are inoculated, how do you get the disease? I guess my question is why does it matter if someone else is not vaccinated if u are?

VAX YOUR CHILDREN

We really still talking about this? Guess everyone has not heard of vaccinations. 🤷🏽‍♂️

Thanks JennyMcCarthy

Thanks to the anti-vax shits

CDC (VAERS) reports 30,000 injuries per year.(Harvard says that number represents less than 1%) MMR has a 48 hour safety Testing period. NOT tested against a double blind placebo. CDC reports MMR can cause Brain swelling. Vs this.

wesley_jordan Thanks anti-vaxers!!! Bringing back disease!

We’re overpopulated and nature is finding a way

Vaccinate your kids you damn fools!!!!!!!!

yashar And all of these parents of unvaccinated kids should be thrown in jail along with DefenderNYC1 because he’s too unintelligent to idsrtand the importance of vaccinating children! Probably because he was unloved as a child and still is SAD

Vaccinate your kids! 🤮

Antivax parents are sneakily hiding their dead children as we speak

WARNING: Vaccines cause adults.

Thank you to the conspiracy freaks who think their child will become instantly autistic should they receive an immunization. Your stupidity is putting others in danger of life threatening diseases. FUCK YOU

A public health emergency and now how did that come about but we can't clear an emergency at the border with all these people swarming into our country unvaccinated!

Stupid anti vax cavemen. Hahaha!

Call me heartless but I have no remorse for those adults who catch measles b/c they choose not to be vaccinated. My heart breaks for kids whose parents don't vaccinate them & those who medically can't be vaccinated who catch measles b/c of anti-vaxxers.

'vaccination bad'

chrislhayes If you aren't vaccinating your kids and have no valud MEDICAL reason for that, kindly GFY and move to some 3rd World country where that is acceptable, before you kill someone else's kid, or a cancer patient, or anyone unlucky enough to catch the preventable disease you kept alive

chrislhayes Hopefully it’s deadly. Evolution needs a little help these days

WhitfordBradley God wants Measels.

Stupid uninformed even fully vaccinated people still catch measles, a healthy immune system is best defense, vaccine's compromise that system, stop the fear mongering money grubbers!

What a time to be alive

Unfortunately, a weak border means everyone who sneaks in brings their diseases along which costs the American taxpayer to medically treat illegals who shouldn't be here. We need to be able to support our own families with the money we earn. We can't afford to support the world.

There’s over 300 million people in this country. I had measles as a kid and chicken pox. The government failed me and I need a life. If everyone just donated 2 simple quarters to me just once. Please help.

Last time checked Measles have been around a hell of a lot longer than Trump with his Wall.

Thanks leftists.

If you can't see the big picture of the overwhelming invasion of undocumented and the rise of previously cure diseases rising in this country you may be a Democrat.

chrislhayes A lot of retrograde things happened with policy around 2000. GOP pushed and the USA even elected Bush. These were pretty good leading indicators of a bad future rising.

Refusal to vaccinate your kids needs to be a straight up felony at this point.

VACCINATE YOUR DAMN KIDS

This came into the US with an undocumented. No question.

chrislhayes Thanks for NOTHING, anti-vaxxers! :-(

Obviously its all those muslims coming into the U.S, seriously. We all know that in an act of terrorism these muslims inject people with fluorine, uranium, carbon and potassium into out citizen's bloodstream to attract measles.

Vaccinate you kids people

Unvaccinated, illegal immigrants are bring back a major health threat that was almost non-existent. Guess we'll wait til a major TB outbreak occurs, before the causes are acknowledged. By then, it will be too late to control.

chrislhayes Is it only people who are not innoculated?

WhitfordBradley Willful ignorance

yikes when measles was something that was almost completely gone, but some people out there actually believe essential oils will keep their kid healthy.

WhitfordBradley Why do people want this to happen to their kids? VaccinateYourKids

chrislhayes Hey; if we really put some effort into it, maybe we can bring back polio!

WestfieldTAP MattKadosh

travis_view I bet the Russians and Chinese are vaccinating their kids...

chrislhayes This is horrible. People who refuse to vaccinate are disgustingly thoughtless and inconsiderate.

chrislhayes The stupidity of humans knows no bounds.

Public service announcement for all anti vaxers... you are the problem

MAGA !

chrislhayes yet Jenny McCarthy is on prime time TV...

Why you think we want the wall illegals bring diseases that we cured decades ago & now in every sanctuary city there back,you only have the local politicians to blame,we should be doing a medical screening of imigrants arriving into our country we wouldn't have this problem

This was expected

MilFay21

Bring in more people from 3rd world Countries..

Yet millions upon millions of unvaccinated illegal immigrants are crossing our border each year. This is another good example of why we need a wall. Thanks !

So if ppl vaccinated their children this wouldn’t happen 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️ I hate ppl so much

Thank you trump voters for “Making Measles Great Again”.

Vaccinate your damn crotch goblins Loretta

Its a shame people are allowed to have kids if they're just gonna hurt them and others. On the other hand this is terrorism in a way.

CRAZY idea, but you could,.. you know... vaccinate your children

DianeSATX Kids with measles - your parents did this to you. Remember that when you have children.

EKhasanova

Inb4 the next pandemic.

Huh parents if only there was a way to prevent this

Yo. Time travel is dope!

IF THERE WAS ONLY A SIMPLE AND CHEAP WAY TO PREVENT THIS

You’re not only hurting yourself by not vaccinating, you’re hurting others around you including your own children! I can’t even have 1 child & I have friends who have 3 or more & don’t vaccinate their kids. Really makes me mad & saddens me. WTF FML

You’re not only hurting yourself by not vaccinating, you’re hurting others around you including children. I can’t even have 1 child and I have friends who have 3 or more and don’t vaccinate their kids. wtf now I guess you’ll have to learn the hard way.

It's a myth people. Do not get it. The measles are coming from immigrant people being placed all over out country. Look it up. Dont believe them. The vaccine will harm you and your children.

They're forcing people to inject something into their body. No thank you.

It looks like regulatory capture and political contributions again, but worse...they make it illegal to not use their products. What if you already had the measles? None of their business.

I really wouldn't trust that vaccgaystationination

Measles or Autism, hmm?

Climate change🤔🤔they say common colds/flus will get stronger..

Try stopping illegal immigrants from coming in who aren’t vaccinated!!

McDonald’s kills almost more than anything. That’s just one food corporate entity. No national emergency to stop them. They boast billions served and are malti national company. 1-4 can’t afford diabetes medicine.... cost $5 to make.

Now, what could have caused THAT? Isn’t there a vaccine that would have prevented that from happening? It’s a mystery! Surely people wouldn’t DELIBERATELY risk this happening, right? Who would CHOOSE to leave their children unprotected, right? Gotta be a mistake.

Resist___45 👀

TrapRapper

The CDC is corrupted.

A problem with a very simple, straightforward solution

It looks like pharma imposing themselves into our gov regulatory system to make us buy their product. See Boeing.

Resist___45

Goodluck fighting rampant anti intellectualism and a return to the dark ages of fascism and magical thinking, this is just a symptom of the incredible lack of education that we've allowed to take place over decades

😳

Yeah but autism rates likely dropped to 0%.

UN hrw HRC help this is a violation of human right people are being forced to vaccinate

Anti vaxxers youve done it now 🙄

This is Division isnt it?

Let them all in ....small pox next

yashar Imagine people with no health records magically appearing in our country...this trend will continue. The disease has been re-imported...

And. BY next week all 465 will be gone. It last a week idiots. 25 thousand kids die each year from vaccine injuries. Talk about that assholes.

many people are entering the USA, illegally, without vaccinations, maybe a cause !

yashar People who don’t vaccinate their kid. Their kid should be able to go outside or go to school

It has never been eliminated. 100 cases every year in US.

yashar “How many people die from it tho” say the assholes who don’t care if a newborn baby suffers miserably with the measles.

yashar I believe Portland news here said most measle outbreaks were from Russian immigrants living in Vancouver, Washington area. Hows that? Most immigrants have to have their shots before coming here.

yashar DAMN ANTI-VAXERS

I'm vaccinated, so are my kids and grandkids, but this one still made me think.

Stupid American anti-vaxxers. It’s tantamount to child abuse. Their selfish decision can affect others (infants, elderly, immuno challenged, etc.).

And it all started due to a bunch of unshaven soccer moms who refuse to vaccinate there children.

marciliroff Wonder why...

iTs mY RIghT T0 Not VacINate mY chILd.

yashar Idiots

yashar thank those anti vacation idiots who refuse to properly take care of their children! Why has the CDC not gone after these people yet? They are doing not only harm to their children but endangering people's lives.

You clowns don’t want to blame trump?

I had both kinds of measles. The last time when a girl in my highschool gym class gave it to everyone. It was awful. You feel miserable and you can lose your hearing, it can affect your eyesight, too. I was 15 then.

yashar Make sure and contact my Governor MattBevin. He has 9 kids to infect.

Import the third world, expect third world problems

yashar Please calm down.

yashar

yashar We need more youngliving essential oils.

yashar MMR vaccine has glyphosate in it.

Thanks alot Anti Vaxxers !

Illegals

Theses anti vaccination people will be the downfall of society I swear.

God hate anti-vaxxers and will punish you with Illness

WALL.....Build it

It's the dumb anti-vaxxers. They endanger their children and everyone else in society.

Thanks anti vaccinator nut jobs

SportsTalkBarry didn't your son suffer from this?

eradication has to be revisited

Open the borders!

BuildTheWallNow

Let’s not go TOO INSANE just yet... IRememberWhenCNNDidNews

Shameful for parents to put children through this.

CNN, you accidentally posted real news w/ facts. I still ckd you w/ CDC. Patient-Zero 'was' a visitor from a foreign country, but I'll let that slide because the moral is ANTIVAXERS ARE IDIOTS. Immunize ur kids!

not vaccinating your children should be considered abuse.

We can thank those who refuse to vaccinate.

Keep letting illegal immigrants go. Our children are going to die

Let’s not for TOO INSANE just yet... IRememberWhenCNNDidNews

Are these cases in sanctuary cities I wonder?

Well atleast god will eliminate those stupid enough to not be vaccinated. Its a movement that ultimately destroys itself.

Me waiting for antivax to leave earth through natural selection

It’s the choice of privileged white parents to bring this disease back. So what?

anti-vax parents don’t vax their children but i bet their dogs are all up to date on their shots 😂

mckellogs If only there was a vaccine against measles....🤦‍♀️

I find it funny that when we immigrate to North America we HAVE to get these vaccinations. But then there’s the anti-vaxers who are like nah it’s ok.

My Body My Choice Keep your worthless vaccines to yourselves

Brought to you by your illegal alien. Democrats are responsible for not building a wall to stop this.

Imagine if we could control who comes into our county and in what condition....and maybe...just maybe we shouldn't have people $*tting in the streets..🤔 San Francisco, CA Circa 2018
