Once you get measles you get immunity for life. No deaths yet. News outlets just making it seem like its worse than it actually is 🤦‍♀️

juliettekayyem Looks like their sign has measles.....

I had mumps and measles. No biggie. Ive had worse flu viruses.

Measles is not a disease. It is a virus. Stop being alarmist.

Remember when schools used to mandate vaccines for attendance? ...I do.

That's LA for ya

This country is effed

What has changed RECENTLY? Well more people crossing the border, we do not know if vaccinated. Measles and who know what else could be flowing across that border. We will probably now see more diseases, we thought we had eradicated come back. Anti vaxers have been around awhile!

I wonder how many of the illegal aliens are immunized. Way to go Democrats continue protecting the illegals over the American citizens

we think people infected with measles should go give trump a handshake

Give your kids the shot stop making other people sick

Fuckin’ Antivaxers. Colonize them on an island or get your shots!! 👨‍🦱🔫

The ProPlague movement is like watching an episode of TheAmericansFX where the Americans are getting destroyed by Commie–Nazi HUMINT. ProPlague is the latest in Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy.

I remember an antivaxxer totally attacked me on FB. She is a big trumper....or was. I blocked her. Anyway.....I was right.

Hey Cali. 🖕🏻

If only there were a vaccine for this.

jesus christ the world is ending.

Could also avoid the problem entirely by just mandating vaccinations.

Hey all they need is an air tanker to drop some essential oils on the poor bastards and all will be well.
