Summary
Texas is experiencing its worst measles outbreak in 30 years, with 90 reported cases, mostly among unvaccinated children and teenagers.
The outbreak is centered in Gaines County, where nearly 18% of students opted out of vaccinations. Officials warn of further spread, with cases already appearing in neighboring New Mexico.
The surge coincides with the confirmation of anti-vaccine advocate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as national health secretary under Trump.
This has prompted concerns as the CDC halts some vaccine campaigns and postpones a vaccine-safety panel meeting.
… worst level so far!
Don’t worry their immune system will kick in.
Freedom Freckles for all true Texicans now!
Hopefully lots of anti-vaxxers die from it ❤️
You should be disappointed to learn that most of the “antivaxxers” probably already got Attenuvax, or even the modern MMR vaccine. It’s their children and other at-risk groups that will suffer the most.
Yes but hopefully no one who can’t or has immune system issues doesn’t because of this
I thought we had a story with the count over 100 already?
Edit: Browsed headlines. The statement was “near 100”
This is just Texas.
The “over 100” one includes New Mexico.
Aha, that’s the one I was thinking of.
Hey RFK jr you anti vax stupid worm brained dumb shit…get working on this one
