Measles is making a comeback in the United States.
Fifty-eight cases of the highly contagious disease were reported Tuesday by health officials in rural West Texas, while eight cases were confirmed in neighboring eastern New Mexico.
Texas officials say the outbreak there, the largest in almost 30 years, is mainly confined to Gaines County, with 45 infections, but four other counties account for an additional 13 cases.
This is just straight depressing because it’s almost certainly mostly kids with shit stain anti-vaxxer parents being affected :(
Europe too. The news told people to make sure they’re vaccinated before going skiing in the Alps because cases have been detected.
66 measles cases reported […] Gaines County, with 45 infections, but four other counties account for an additional 13 cases.
Wouldn’t that be 58 cases?
You skipped the previous paragraph:

If I get the red neck measles I swear to god…
Unfortunately, this is just going to keep spreading, measles is just too infectious, and not enough people have immunity to keep it in check.
and so it begins…
