Kansas measles cases double to 23 and new Ohio outbreak sickens 10

With all due respect, no.

The typical response to a vaccination, specifically those involving live virus, is not for the recipient to become “VERY ILL” or “DEAD”

I am very well aware of how vaccines work, how the body is supposed to respond to the vaccine and the typical side effects that are to be expected. I can assure you that “very ill” and/or “dead” are not among them. Those would be considered atypical.

And yet, those same communities did not have any outbreaks of any note before the last few years. I don’t disagree that those communities are the prime places for the bugs to spread and I’m NOT anti-vaccine. But those bugs came back into our country via unvetted immigration from third world countries.

Look up Measles Outbreak for Haredi, then for Amish and finally for Mennonite. Stories go back to the 90s with research papers written about them in the 80s. This has always been a thing for those communities and they refuse to vaccinate. Israel regularly is dealing with Measles Outbreaks with the Haredi, they don’t have illegals coming in.`

Nothing that I said was in jest. To be honest, I am unclear as to what you think I was unserious about.

Either way, I am throwing in the towel on this one

According to your numbers, at 100% vaccination, there should be at least 3% of the population still potentially susceptible to measles. I would think that 23 people in the entire state of Kansas would fall into that margin of error.

When you look at the overall numbers .. Side effects, %, and the failed immunity .. With current standards there will always be someone affected. Unless we can vaccinate the world..
What the vaccine is most effective at is stopping the spread.. This means the 3%ers have less chance of coming in contact with a full blown carrier aka another 3%..Those who do not immunize. Spread it to the 3%… They could have lived their whole life without getting it . If not for the actions of a few.
Sadly the ones that die from the shot can not be helped with current technology… My hopes are that CRISPR and DNA sequencing will help eliminate the deaths from vaccines…

That is a wonderful thought. The cynical side of me would point out the arrogance of thinking we can completely overcome nature. For every disease we have gained control over, a new variant step in or another pops up in nature to take it’s place. I firmly believe in vaccination but after adverse reactions to a few mandatory experimental vaccines in the military, I will stick to the fully certified ones and hold off on the “Emergency approval” or “Provisional approval” vaccines.

The reason to take vaccines, and especially measles vaccine, is to protect OTHERS, not yourself. It requires a certain level of care for your community. But conspiracy theories allow you to rationalize your selfish behavior and make someone else the bad guy instead of yourself.
