New York City has declared the measles outbreak affecting the Orthodox Jewish community in Williamsburg to be a public health emergency, Mayor Bill de Blasio said Tuesday.
Unvaccinated people living in select zip codes will be required to receive the measles, mumps and rubella vaccine, known as MMR, to curtail the outbreak and protect others, he said.Under the mandatory vaccinations, members of the city's Department of Health and Mental Hygiene will check the vaccination records of any individual who may have been in contact with infected patients.
"There's nothing in Talmudic law that prohibits vaccination," said Barbot."We saw only two cases in New York City in 2017, so we have a very serious situation on our hands," said de Blasio."We cannot allow this dangerous disease to make a comeback in this city -- we have to stop it now."
No vaccine, no medical insurance coverage. Let this choice have consequences. It will fix its self
Good for them!
What about the illegals ?..
Good cuz their ignorance puts my children and family at risk. They still have a choice to not vaccinate but the. Parents choose to home school!!!! Ignorance affects everyone!
Start at the border.
Endangering public safety because of your personal believes is unacceptable for the society as a whole.
while you at it, do something about the rats. the whole city is infested with them.
Agree, you don't have the right to go around infecting people, especially something that can be avoided
What would you expect from a toilet liberal run city....
Kiwasiow $1,000 fine!! No messing around with NYC!
I have a weird feeling that inst a coincidence. and of course there is a fine . ARE THESE VACCINES SAFE?
Maybe there is something about not letting illegal aliens just enter our country in the name of global socialism. How’s that sanctuary city status working out for you NY?
Please remember to make sure you are still immune ! My hubby got a blood test to make sure as he was vacccinated as a child. Simple blood test. Thank goodness he did! He needed a booster as his immunity was not complete. I had it done as well but all set, I had booster as adult.
City making bank with weoponized sanctuary status.
Should really up the penalty. The rich middle class anti-vaxxers will just pay this $1000 and go on about their non-vaccinated way
Well it’s New York, can’t they just abort the kid?
This is anti-Semitic !
Great about time. You can’t even serve peanuts in school because a child might have an allergic reaction, I don’t know why this isn’t in place already.
9th circut should block order! They block all the President orders.
Merck’s MMR vaccine lot is about to expire... create a panic...problem solved. fuckvaccines sheep poison
But the MSM is already reporting this has been caused by travelers returning from trips overseas, not illegal aliens. If this is accurate, then why is it just now becoming an issue?
I wonder if the measles outbreak could be traced back to illegal immigration.
It’s a shame it affects others and not just non vaxers. Diseases have wiped out entire civilizations which have allowed for others to move in (and create laws keeping survivors out). Allowing the non-vaxers to wipe themselves out would free up so much space in NYC’s realty.
A Weasel Outbreak! CNN is definitely infected! Cuomo, Tapper, Lemon, Cooper etc. . A threat to public safety and intelligence! I know they have identified Patient Zero: Jerry Nadler! But it is only spread by having one’s head stuck up another’s Butt!
This will all end well.
What about all this right to choose. Biting you in the ass now. Not funny and safe for children
It’s not an emergency ..The measles are only here to do the job other diseases refuse to do
Should Trafficked children who across the border be vaccinated? NYC should worry about importing measles.
BOYCOTT CNN
Socialism at its finest. Now the Government wants control over raising YOUR child.
CNN It's the MeXICaNS.
Now talk to the Democrats for not taking the Southern Border crisis seriously. POTUS VP WhiteHouse SenateGOP HouseGOP SenateDems HouseDemocrats GOP DHSgov
It's amazing how Democrtatic government of New York looks at a unvaccinated kid as a way to get money, and a new born baby can be killed and discarded like a piece of garbage.
The measles is no joke you get red spots on your body and it causes Encephalitis which is a swelling of the brain and can also cause Pneumonia. It’s been around since the 9th century last I remember there was an outbreak at two Disney locations in Orange County back in 2015 I
These parents should be held accountable for not vaccinating their children . They should be charged with child endangerment let alone the danger to the public that this neglect has caused. Using religion as an excuse a child with measles to be removed from their parents custody
Gee, I wonder where this outbreak originated from? Couldn't possibly be illegal migrants. No,how rude of me to think of something like that.
So all the illegal immigrants entering on our southern border should be sent to NYC to isolate them since they have probably not been vaccinated
No more “my body/my choice”? 🤔😂
What about the children who can't be vaccinated because of an allergy to the ingredients in the vaccine? Will they be fined and ostracised by everyone?
Nope nope it has nothing to do with all the people streaming into the country over the southern border that aren't vaccinated MAGA QAnon this outbreak is just the start
If this was done by Republicans, the headline would be, 'GOP fines poor people and forces kids to be stuck with needles.'
this specific issue is centered in the hasidic section of brooklyn. Unless you have met these folks or lived with them, you won't understand what the big deal is. You will have loud cries of persecution just by trying to get them to obey the law. Its sharia law there. seriously
will warning also they needing money by that emergency of congress nacionality public
the antivaxxers make my head hurt so much
Are they going to hold people down and force inject them?
Ah yes....to think we are now back at 3rd world country status. Never in my +50 years thus far would I think we would be taking steps backwards.
How will they know if illegals have been vaccinated?
But, the cry from affected neighborhoods will be that it violates religious rules and is not kosher.
That Unconstitutional regulation will not last beyond the first 5 minutes of a court fight. VaccineInjury survivor
Bravo on that decision! Tanya Kujath
thats gonna piss off the AntiVaxers.
Immunization is a reality. Immunize your children. Stop reading BS on Facebook
So, 'my body my choice' only applies when you want to murder the unborn?
Yes
This is what you get when you listen to face book on medical ideas.
Revert
All those liberal hipsters need to get their shots.
