Amid the ongoing shutdown, the HHS secretary wiped out entire offices that investigate disease outbreaks, manage infectious disease responses and collect data.

    Other countries should just stop tourists from the USA from entering - the damn place is a biohazard at this point.

      You think that the people rooting for this are world travelers? What’s really strange is I just did an Uber ride for a couple from the Netherlands that came to visit center of nowhere.

        I don’t care if the guy spreading measles voted D or R. I care that he’s spreading measles.

          Democrats still believe in science and get their family vaccinated. But nice attempt to BOTH SIDES!!! the issue, cretin.

          Or maybe you just don’t understand how disease and infection works? Highly likely.

            Wow, you sure have a short fuse, buddy. Shame your aim is all over the place.

            Now read this and this, then come back and tell me:

            1. how Democrats’ belief in science helps them when the whole country becomes infested, and
            2. you’re sorry for calling me names for completely failing to understand what I wrote.

              Thanks for proving with your links about herd immunity and asymptomatic carriers that you have no real idea how disease and infection works. You are literally saying you think vaccinated people visiting a place with vaccinated people will create a pandemic. I guess you don’t believe vaccinations really work?

              You’re a genius!

                FFS, mate…

                Vaccinated people aren’t 100% immune. Vaccinated people CAN be the transfer vessel for viruses. AND not everybody CAN get vaccinated.

                Like, if you took your head out of your arse for one minute to read what I’m actually writing, you’d realise that you’re barking up the wrong tree.
