Trump officials sowed fear and confusion among CDC scientists, slowing their response to the measles outbreak in West Texas. Cases surged and sparked new outbreaks across the U.S. and Mexico. Together, these linked outbreaks have sickened more than 4,500 and killed at least 16 in the U.S. and Mexico.

          If liberals were not such a bunch of pussies it would have happened already. But they didn’t want to stoop low and be shitty. It just goes to show there is some great disadvantage to empathy and being decent. You can never play on a level field with raging paychopaths who would throw their mother under a bus just to get an extra dollar. Such is survival in a shitty world.

            It’s true. Also there are no true liberals in the US outside of Bernie, AOC, and perhaps Jayapal.

      Not really. The antivax people will explain away the deaths using some SovCit level thinking.

      My brother is one of these people and he is unwilling to see it as a problem.

      True. Don’t call them low-information voters. They got what they wanted.

    By the by, the British NHS has some really nice webpages with information and recommendations. Here’s their vaccine recommendations: https://www.nhs.uk/vaccinations/nhs-vaccinations-and-when-to-have-them/

    May come in handy if you feel that your for-profit-doctor is trying to upsell you.
