Measles spreads all the time among fully vaccinated populations--such as in public schools. Does that mean that the vaccine doesn't work? If not, then why not? If my dog got rabies after regularly receiving the rabies vaccine, I would have legitimate questions.IP: Logged |

The risk of severe complications is higher among unvaccinated. Especially for those <5 and >20 years of age. Adults can get really sick. It’s also very risky for pregnant women. It barely spreads when the population has a high vaccination degree. It’s no coincidence it’s currently spreading in a region with low vaccination degree. https://www.who .int/news-room/fact-sheets/detail/measles#:~:text=Unvaccinated%20young%20children%20and%20pregnant,risk%20of%20severe%20measles%20complications.

Measure outbreaks have historically spread among fully vaccinated populations (in public schools). And if I am vaccinated, why do I care if you are or not? Am I not protected by the vaccine?IP: Logged |

I’m following an account that shares news about outbreaks, and the American medical association is apparently sharing updates on YouTube. IP: Logged |

That means that people aren’t vaccinating their children. But you know that. IP: Logged |

Why did rump decide that we should be in the dark about anything health-related? He has tried to cut us all off from information we all need, in order to make our own decisions about what we need to do, to protect ourselves. IP: Logged |

Almost all children in schools are vaccinated against measles. If a few aren’t, that should not cause outbreaks among the vaccinated unless the vaccine doesn’t work. And you are not one who makes the right health decisions. IP: Logged |

Measles aren’t the biggest threat right now. You should worry about H5N1 in dairy farm animals. https://www.fda.gov/food/alerts-advisories-safety-informati on/investigation-avian-influenza-h5n1-virus-dairy-cattle https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-025-00245-6 Drinking unpasteurized milk is really dangerous. RFK is going to make a big mess of this. IP: Logged |

Yep. Bird flu has been killing dogs and cats that were given raw milk, and certain raw foods. Flu, covid, and other diseases, also have hospitals packed right now. But the republicons think it doesn’t matter. IP: Logged |

Since you mentioned it, a new study is out that links Covid vaccines to weakened immunity. So, the Covid vaccine may be contributing to outbreaks of the flu. While I look for that study, here is a recent study that links the Covid vaccine to all sorts of health issues: http://www.msn.com/en-ie/science/biochemi stry/new-study-links-mrna-vaccines-to-long-term-health-effects/ar-AA1zsIMo?ocid=BingNewsSerp IP: Logged |
