There has recently been a third case of measles confirmed in Shasta County. At this time, there have been no measles cases confirmed in Trinity County. As we increase measles surveillance, it is valuable to remind our community that Trinity County Public Health has effective procedures in place for controlling the spread of contagious illnesses, and has successfully addressed similar issues in the past.
Measles is a highly contagious viral infection that spreads very easily from person to person through coughing and sneezing. It causes a high fever, coughing, runny nose, and the characteristic rash that begins on the face and spreads down the body. The rash appears three to five days after the initial symptoms of fever, cough, and runny nose. Due to a vaccine preventing measles, the illness has become much less common in the United States. However, people young and old can still get the measles, and it can lead to serious complications, especially in very young children, adults older than 20, pregnant women, and people with weakened immune systems. That is why it is important to understand what causes measles, who is most at risk for getting it, and how to protect yourself and your family if you are exposed.
Shasta County has identified these locations as possible exposure sources.
• Movies 14 in Redding on April 16, 7-11 PM
• Club 501 in Redding on April 5 from 10 PM to April 6 at 2 AM
• Club 501 in Redding on April 6 from 10 PM to April 7 at 2 AM
• Shasta Regional Medical Center in Redding on April 4 from 9 AM – 1 PM
• Shasta Regional Medical Center in Redding on April 7 from 1:45-5:15 PM
• Shasta Regional Medical Center in Redding on April 7 from 9:15 PM to 12:30 AM
• Shasta Regional Medical Center in Redding on April 8 from 12:30–3 PMPlease contact Trinity County Public Health if you were at any of these locations during the identified time frame.
The most common risk factors for getting measles include:
Not being vaccinated – if you have not been vaccinated against measles and come in contact with the virus, your chances of becoming ill are very high.
International travel – travelling in countries where measles is more common and vaccination rates are lower than in the United StatesMeasles can be serious among all age groups; however people who may be at especially high risk for complications include:
Adults – adults who get the measles are likely to have more severe symptoms.
People with weakened immune systems – this may include anyone with an immune- system disorder, and people who are receiving steroid or chemotherapy treatment.
Very young children – children who are exposed to measles can develop ear infections that result in permanent hearing loss, as well as pneumonia, the most common cause of death among young children with the measles. Swelling of the brain, known as encephalitis, is also a possibility among young children.
Pregnant women – pregnant women who get the measles are at an increased risk for serious complications, preterm labor, and preterm delivery.A person is considered immune to the measles if they were born before 1957 or have received two doses of measles mumps rubella (MMR) vaccine. The MMR vaccine is safe and very effective at preventing the disease. Additional ways to prevent the spread of measles include:
Staying at home if you are infected with the measles until no longer contagious.
Covering coughs and sneezes and washing your hands regularly.
Avoiding places where you know a person with the measles was present in the last 4 hours.If you think you have the measles, seek medical attention and DO NOT go out in public. It is necessary to contact the clinic, hospital, or doctor’s office before arriving so that they can take the proper infection control measure. An individual is infectious from four days before the rash starts through four days after the rash appears.

It seems the side effects are worse than the disease itself. But hey, let’s make the pharmaceutical companies a bit richer.
And if you do get injured, guess who pays? The Pharmaceutical corporation?
Guess again.
The taxpayers (you and me) pay all injury claims made in vaccine court.
Please feel free to die of measles if you want to. Just make sure you don’t spread it to anyone else.
This is ok kym? Wishing death on someone who is informed?
That isn’t wishing death, that’s indicating a possible outcome.
Seems pretty meam to.me bit ok.
Sir, you will see side effects like that listed on just about everything right now. Ignorance of science and odds is no excuse to endanger innocent people. There is a REASON people are extremely worried about ‘anti-vaxxers’ mis-informed opinions spreading. Pro Tip: Just because Alex Jones said it, it may not actually be true. O.K.?
If Phony Jones says anything, assume it to be bullshit.
The side effects of getting the measles are the same. With vaccinations there is always a chance of a reaction. The statistics are for vaccination though are that your chances of getting a complication from the disease are far more frequent than from a vaccination. People who refused to vaccinate their children were getting a free ride being protected by those who did. Apparently they so frightened the public now that enough are refusing vaccinations and there is now increasing chance of running into another unvaccinated person who will share their disease with you.
Measles does not kill a large percentage of those who get it but that doesn’t mean that you are not scarred by it. My sister, who wanted nothing more than to be a musician lost a part of her hearing which made her unable to play well. When she gave it to me, I got encephalitis and spent a year being sick with other complications including pneumonia and kidney infections.
@Prana – Thanks for providing that unfounded conjecture…which nobody asked for…
Though, I have to ask… Why did you capitalize the word “Pharmaceutical” there at the end?
Not unfounded conjecture. Look at page 6 of this document on the MMR vaccine from Merck. https://www.merck.com/product/usa/pi_circulars/m/mmr_ii/mmr_ii_pi.pdf
Speaking of unfounded conjecture, behold a small sample of Prana’s Twitter feed:

Thank you.
Calling out BS is important.
I feel the same, we do what we can.
I feel the same, we do what we can. It is frustrating when threads become overwhelmed by a flood of nonsense to the point where no meaningfully discussion can be had. I believe this is the intent of many internet trolls, to muddy the waters by throwing out insane conspiracy theory so that people no longer know what is true or false. Although granted some are probably just genuinely confused and or guillable people.
~thank you, Prana. You can bet these same naysayers deny man-made climate collapse, the dangers of 5G radiation, DNAcell phone EMF, while eating GMO Frankenfood washed down with fluoridated water.
So I take it you also believe in a secret space program that sends people back in time, reverses their age and erases their memory? I don’t know wether to be amused by your insane conspiracy theories or to feel sorry for you. Seek mental help.
Reality (not even close)
“Seek mental help”. Wow,! How original – with no facts whatsoever that “seek mental health” is a provable aid to our ailing society. Facts, where’s your facts? All you offer is your unfounded opinions that clog the thread.
“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.” Joseph Goebbels
It is amazing that people will actually risk the lives of their children and themselves by the rationalization behind rejecting the advances of healthcare and science!
Wherever you are hiding, would you like your family to get Polio? How about Scarlet Fever? Hepatitis B?
Measles, Mumps and Rubella are wholly preventable, should we just let the children suffer from disease, since we are ignorant and paranoid?
All medicine, every drug including Marijuana, each has a list of “side effects”. It is OK for you to sit there and volunteer your children to suffer, but do you actually believe the stuff you read on the internet?
I should think you would eschew the very use of electronic devices, information systems, cell phones, electric lights, and motor vehicles, since they are all “harmful”…
Welcome to your denial, your closed thought patterns, your crazy little ignorant world, and, you probably shouldn’t have children at all since life itself leads to a fatal outcome, in 100% of cases…
https://www.healthychildren.org/English/health-issues/vaccine-preventable-diseases/Pages/default.aspx
Billy- it could be related to previous thread, about lack of local news and information in general. Uninformed population is a big problem.
I don’t believe that anti-vaxers suffer from a lack of information, but they do suffer from a lack of intelligent thought. It also upsets me that researchers spent their lives to develop these vaccines in order to reduce human suffering, people like Jonas Salk. The Thimersol may have been implicated in some conditions, but the products appear to be safe, and have been tested in millions of patients. To think that your children are at risk from a product, used in millions of other children, is paranoid and supremely ignorant.
These folks do not have a lack of news, but they do have a lack of respect for the sacrifices of people intent upon ending disease, suffering, and premature death from diseases we have eradicated through vaccination.
Would you have your children get Tetanus, and cause the expenditure of millions of dollars in care, because of a scratch or a simple injury? You may have Medicaid, but a simple vaccine could significantly limit the suffering of your child, and could well prevent their death!
No amount of misguided fear is worth risking your children’s ability to survive preventable disease.
Vaccinate for their health, their life, and make your own choices for yours alone… Ignorance is not an excuse for failing to protect your children…
Do u have children?
Frequency of side effects compared to frequency of disease is relevant.
Thank you. We can’t stop the lemmings from running off the ledge, but we can advertise along their way.
My reply here is all the vaccines, all medications, all things applied to the body must have all side effects listed. That means even one person out of a hundred thousand experiences the side effect it has to be listed as a side effect.
Since vaccines began in 1906, over 6 million lives have been saved that would have died from disease.
Many of the persons citing antivax support speak of the Dr Sears vaccine book, which at this point is information that is almost 20 years old. And of current note Dr. Sears has been prosecuted for falsifying records and information and thete is even talk of having his license pulled because of his false information so that’s a little suspect there.
Vaccine contents, additives and in general vaccines have continued to improve and contain less preservatives.
Please parents look at the absolute most current vaccine information from years dated 2017 and Beyond. Nothing with a lesser date than that on your article print date.
In the end yes the choice is yours! But there are many options out there today that are very safe and will protect your child from vaccine preventable diseases.
Thanks,
section 13 of the vaccine insert says they haven’t been tested for mutagenic potential, carcinogenic potential etc.
There woukdn’t be a vaccine court where millions are paid out for vaccine related injuries if they were safe.
If anyone can provide 1 study that shows they are safe and that study can prove they prevent disease, post it here.
Here this is 1 of 100s that exist.
Mendocino,
this is the link to the info. you posted
https://www.cdc.gov/media/releases/2014/p0424-immunization-program.html
That is not a study.
Can anybody find 1 study (meaning a research paper)
that proves that vaccines prevent disease and do not cause harm?
Just 1 study.
Thanks.
Vaccines can cause harm. Just a lot less than the harm not using them causes. As for the effectiveness of vaccines- count up the people you know who had smallpox.
U really believe them huh?
You forgot to put the rate at which these potential side effects occur. Which is next to nothing.
And, probably a lot of those side effects occur in groups of people who are compromised by predisposed conditions, of which many are probably mentioned in the warnings published by the company that made the drug. So if you take away the predispositions and the screw ups, the numbers change. In favor of vacs in my opinion. Don’t let the politicians BS you on this one. They would give you all measles for a few votes.
~and, if your stupid enough to get injected by man-made toxic brew PLEASE STAY HOME away from the public. That Vax-a-nation sheds for 2 weeks.
Vaccines have saved over 6 million lives since they began in 1906. There’s been a lot of improvement since then! 🔬Are you vaccinated CentralHumCo? ❤🤤
You seem uninformed. Check out the nouriahimg traditiona book of child care for some up to date info
This book. So published in 2013. 10 years to get to Market and about five years before that to truly build the book so this is information from 1998. To say that nothing has changed or improved since then is kind of sad because it definitely has. No matter what the subject.
Here…
Yes there has beem even more brainwashing. And get tjw bool the studies are from 2016 and quite recent
~No, i’m not of the vax-a-nation genocide group of automated virtual data repositories.
“Vaccines have saved over 6 million lives since they began in 1906.” You can’t be serious. Sanitation, clean water, un-molested food, and clean living conditions have added to longevity.
Gandhi quotes:
“Vaccination is a barbarous practice, and it is one of the most fatal of all life delusions current in our time.”
“The vaccine is a filthy substance and it is foolish to expect that one kind of filth can be removed by another.”
“Conscientious objectors to vaccination should stand alone, if need be, against the whole world, in defence of their conviction.”
Gandhi didn’t know everything, he was racist against dark people.
“Sanitation, clean water, un-molested food, and clean living conditions have added to longevity. ”
Yes and none of those effects are attributed to vaccines.
I think I saw you on youtube getting your car window broken out by a cop.

Nobody has ever produced a study that vaccines prevent disease and do not cause harm.
All the commenters provide are news clips.
News clips are not studies.
Can anybody find research info. like from medical literature that backs up the claims?
Incidentally, most doctors don’t vaccinate their own children.

As per court ruling… No scientist, immunologist, infectious disease specialist or medical doctor has ever been able to establish a scientific foundation for the vaccination of measles. This raises the question of what was actually injected into billions over the past few decades in the infamous MMR and other vaccines? In fact… CDC Data Proves Measles Vaccines Kill More People than Measles. SACRED COW: “A firmly held mainstream belief that is considered to be true without independent verification”. “VACCINE” is derived from the Latin word for “COW” (VACCA).

So you also outwardly appear righteous to men, but within, you are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.”
There are things so dangerous to the public that the freedom of action guaranteed by the Constitution is tempered by the Constitution itself. No one has the right to exercise their individual rights by endangering their neighbors simultaneously requiring that these same neighbors to allow them the benefits of society. At that point you either surrender some of your individual freedom to cause harm or you live isolated enough to minimize the harm you are determined to cause.
How far are we willing to go to protect the “public” and isolate the bad elements? Should we ban meat eaters from the healthcare/insurance system because of the higher associated costs and burden to society?
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4698595/
Where the line is drawn is a constant struggle but at least our Constitution requires that such decisions are a struggle rather than the unilateral socialist authoritarianism without recourse.
Disease is one of the places where an individual is helpless to defend themselves from the paranoia, craziness and plain stupidity of their neighbors. There is a real risk to a person getting a vaccination but it is very small compared to the risks of the disease. It merits error on the side of regulation.
God I don’t know which is more stupid- those who think that because they have been protected from disease that it’s threat is all a lie ( paranoid) or the ones who have been so protected from the natural order of dog eat dog for so long , so they deny
that there are plenty of dogs quite willing to take advantage of their shortsightedness (arrogant). Such monomania that ignores history and science is always so supercilious- like vegans.
~sorry Guest, you’re way off base on this.
The Constitution exists to set up the Federal Government and the Federal Government is responsible for nineteen delegated “powers” — duties to perform services in common for the subscribing states of the union—- all of which, with the limited exception of the Interstate Commerce Clause— take place in the international jurisdiction of the sea.
NEVER, EVER, was external authority delegated powers to prescribe what we, the living sentient beings on the land, put in our bodies.
There is no mention of education in the original Constitution either. And thus education is a power that falls to the States to regulate. If the States choose to require vaccinations to attend the educational institution , that is their right. The Constitution neither requires anything except where the Federal government has the power nor bars the State from exercising that power as they choose unless it is in conflict to the power designated by the Constitution. Thus if an individual chooses to challenge the requirement to the Supreme Court they can if they can show it is in conflict with a Federal law. Otherwise there is no Constitutional issue.
Where is this “State” you refer to? If we go to Sacramento and throw open the doors of the legislature, will we find the State? The power remains with the people – WE are the state.
“The Myth of Authority” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=asqLxSYbUUE 16:51 Dec 2015.
How does education fall to the State to regulate? Why do you think there’s so many Moms homeschooling now? The public fool system teaches what to think, not how to think.
The State is always society’s enemy. The State has no money of its own, only what the people give it. The State has no power of its own, only what the people delegate. The world that T.H.E.Y. live in, they can’t recognize the private, that would be like pulling the curtains back for all to see, the fictional world of lack and despair.
No paper gives a right that is reserved for the living man with free will. We can only wish that a certain event or actions occur as all have free will, not to trespass on anyone, perhaps we can lay down by the still waters/spirit.
Thousands of people die each day in car accidents, cars are touted to be safe. Occasionally people die in bus crashes or train wrecks but they are touted as safe. Yes there are lots of things that are called safe that do have some risks, most things in life have this damn ironic twist! ❤ Been parachuting, used a heater that produces carbon monoxide? I know of some folks that went up for a dream ski vacation with their two kids and never returned because of a faulty vent pipe on the heater.

It has introduced the religion of praxis and productivity; it has put the quest for profit, great industrial production, and mechanical, visible, and quantitative achievements over any other interest.
It has generated a soulless greatness of a purely technological and collective nature, lacking any background of transcendence, inner light, and true spirituality. America has [built a society where] man becomes a mere instrument of production and material productivity within a conformist social conglomerate.” ― Julius Evola

Central,
thanks.
Exactly, nobody has ever posted scientific literature that proves vaccines deter disease and proves vaccines don’t cause harm.
News clips which are not sourced with scientific literature don’t mean anything.
The CDC website shows the side effects for vaccines, as well as a statement as to who should or should not take them.
According to the CDC, they are not without risk. They also describe the purpose and desired benefit for the vaccines.
Simple test next time your offered a vaccination. Ask the person with the needle, ” what are you injecting me with?” If they are unable or unwilling to provide the information don’t let them proceed. Every time I go to the Dr they want to give a “free” flu shot yet no-one can ever provide me with an ingredient list. Then the nurse looks at me like I am the odd one asking for information she does not have. Modern science should be able to at least provide folks with information about the contents of a vaccine or a flu shot. Often that information is not available to the people who are being inoculated, which to me seems a bit insane.

There has been no increase in the number of people who had the same mental issues . And don’t think that the idea that no one died of measles should be allowed to stand. https://www.forbes.com/sites/tarahaelle/2015/07/02/first-u-s-measles-death-in-more-than-a-decade/#7c019cb8a196 It’s simply not true.
Besides, had I died when I had the measles that lead to a kidney infection and then to pneumonia over a period of 6 months, I doubt that measles would have been listed as a cause death. It would have been the complication of measles that would have been listed- pneumonia.
You have been protected. So well protected, you think that is the way it is naturally. You only see the problems left, thinking that everyone who was alive and knows the reality of the disease is stupid. You, who have not seen them, presume yourself to be wiser. Since you’d rather resurrect the old miseries, way too much effort has to be spent dealing with that rather than in making vaccines safer and safer.
How do you eat?
I miss Polio and Smallpox.
Those were the days [sigh]
So after reading all of the comments above I see that many people can not make a statement without letting their emotions influence their position. It is understandable as this is an emotional issue and disease in children (and adults) is very serious. I want to know what the truth is, and I don’t just blindly follow someone’s word.
It’s true, in the past, (and currently), vaccines prevented illness. They are not new. They were used well before 1906 ( https://www.historyofvaccines.org/timeline/all ). The use of certain ingredients in vaccines is new however. It is these additives that are causing concern to people who have lost faith in vaccines, and vaccine makers. Their concern is increased by the way our country has handled the safeguarding of the large pharmaceutical corporations making these vaccines by protecting them from lawsuits. It is also true that advances in cleanliness and sanitation made great improvements, right around the time certain vaccines came in to use, giving the impression the vaccines made the advances, when in fact it may be that it was the cleanliness and sanitation improvements.
For people who want to blame non-vaccinated children for the spread of disease, I ask; If your kid is vaccinated, why do you care? Your kid is protected. For the people who say everyone should be vaccinated without choice, I say; the state doesn’t own our bodies, and the forcible injection of vaccines without parent approval constitutes nothing short of aggravated assault. If you disagree with that perhaps you should take an extended visit to a communist country to understand how it works. Our own state now requires children to be vaccinated before entering school, unless they have an exemption. Now the state is going after doctors giving exemptions, much like they did when doctors gave recommendations for marijuana use. The forced vaccination mandate for school is denying children education, which is a violation of their constitutional rights.
If this is such a huge problem, why were we letting unvaccinated children (and adults) in to the population via illegal immigration? Shouldn’t they have been quarantined first? They have for years come to this country only to be released to the general population unvaccinated.
Why is there no discussion Homeoprophylaxis? Kate Birch and Cilla Whatcott wrote a great book about it: The Solution. Library of Congress Control Number 2012908826. I can not even find a doctor locally who knows what this is. Is it possible our highly trained doctors are not as highly trained as we thought?
All these questions. But my one question to you is this. If your kid had a neurological reaction to a vaccination, as mine did, would you continue giving those vaccinations to the kid? If you would, perhaps it is you who is guilty of aggravated assault.
Thank you, John. Yes, it’s hard to keep emotions out of this since its mostly aimed at babies who are injected in the delivery room with Vitamin K in one thigh and Hep.B in the other, with a total of 58 jabs by the time the child reaches five years old, SHOULD make questions arise in any parent.
Ever wonder why the Mennonites do not suffer the American cancer epidemic? Dr. Mary’s Monkey on YouTube is a real eye-opener – to those who can handle the truth. Autism is also unheard of in the Mennonites.
A lot of people won’t want to hear this, but . . . empowering the corporate gov’t to inject people against their will is far more dangerous than the measles.

They do not vaccinate
Because, as is clear, vaccines discourage the disease. They don’t prevent them. Even someone who has been vaccinated, if exposed to enough viral load, can have their immune system overwhelmed by enough exposure to the virus. And you want to throw those too young or too ill to be successfully vaccinated under the bus. You can’t claim that pro life stance if you’re so will to take that stance.
Guest, listen closer. You’re trying to defend something so unnatural as to make the angels weep.
“Vaccines discourage the disease”. Vaccines ARE the disease. What do you think causes the immune system to be compromised in the first place?
REPEAT: ‘German supreme court rules Measles are not Caused by a Virus’ by Dr. Mark Sircus, Ac., OMD, DM: In a recent ruling, judges at the German Federal Supreme Court confirmed that the measles ‘virus’ does not exist.
Death is natural. Disease is natural. And BTW measles itself “resets” the immune systm so that the immunity built up prior to the disease fades away. Then of course you need to build it up by getting the previous diseases all over again. Natural is no guarantee to do anything for the individual that the individual would find agreeable.
And don’t be patronizing unless you have the enough capital in the bank… https://skeptics.stackexchange.com/questions/39817/did-germanys-supreme-court-rule-that-the-measles-virus-didnt-exi What the court case was apparently about was that an anti vaxxer offered a large prize if someone provided one scientific publication that proved the measles virus exists. A man claimed the prize using a combination of six scientific publications that did prove the measles virus existed. The anti vaxxer then refused to pay up because his criterion for winning was one publication, not six. He won his appeal about the bet only. The judges in the case warned clearly that this did not mean they ruled therevwas no virus. Only the the requirement if the bet was not met.
Guest,
Thanks for not letting this become a misinforational club comment section.
Really appreciate it.
” Then of course you need to build it up by getting the previous diseases all over again.” Where do you come up with this?
” Natural is no guarantee to do anything for the individual that the individual would find agreeable.”
Yeah, there’s no guarantees. However, choosing what nature provides for nature fits. Needles jabbed into the human body with man-made toxins is nothing short of evil. Why doesn’t somebody claim the $100,000 to prove that vaccines deter disease and don’t cause harm? Because they can’t.
I didn’t read the German court case. Was there a number of scientific publications that had to be met above the one? For sure, when you read litigation papers it more than not puts a whole different slant on parts of what gets published.

Which is exactly what happened to me as a child. I got measles, followed by one illness after another for a year.
Kym – There has been one case of measles in our county but no exposure as the patient was met at the airport in San Francisco and transported here in a medically protective way to avoid exposure to anyone enroute to the hospital and while recovering here.
Interesting. As of February 4, I was told there had been no cases. And there has been no notification of any.
My source is from our county – here is the website: https://humboldtgov.org/CivicAlerts/SingleAlertItem?alertID=53
That is from 2014. Here’s the whole post:

Measles case confirmed in Humboldt County
Officials from the Department of Health and Human Services announced today that a man admitted to a local hospital earlier this week has tested positive for measles.
The man, whose name and other identifying information will not be released, had recently traveled overseas, where he is believed to have contracted the illness. He was met at San Francisco International Airport by his family, driven to their Humboldt County home and then taken the next day to St. Joseph Hospital, where all appropriate precautions were taken to avoid additional infections.
The DHHS Public Health Laboratory confirmed the test results Monday night.
“At this point we have reason to believe Humboldt County dodged a bullet,” said Public Health Deputy Director Ira Singh. “Aside from health care workers and the man’s family, it appears that no one in Humboldt County has been exposed to the illness.”
The California Department of Public Health (CDPH) is handling notifications of people who may have been exposed outside of Humboldt County.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), measles is a potentially fatal disease caused by a highly contagious virus, which spreads when people touch or breathe in infectious droplets passed by coughing and sneezing.
Measles can begin with fever, cough, sore throat, runny nose and red eyes. Middle ear infections, pneumonia, croup and diarrhea are common complications. Measles encephalitis occurs rarely but frequently results in permanent brain damage among survivors. Death is more common among infants and immunocompromised people, including those with leukemia or HIV infection.
“This incident underscores the importance of immunization,” said Eric Gordon, a Public Health nurse at DHHS. “Failure to vaccinate your children can put them and the people they come into contact with at risk.” The man in the Humboldt County case was unvaccinated.
Measles can be prevented by the combination measles, mumps, rubella (MMR) vaccine. The CDC reports that in the decade before the measles vaccination program began in the U.S., an estimated 3 to 4 million people were infected each year, with as many as 500 deaths, 48,000 hospitalizations and 1,000 people chronically disabled from measles encephalitis.
More than 90 percent of measles cases in the U.S. originate from overseas but spread rapidly through any susceptible population. CDPH reports that in 2014, there have been 60 confirmed cases of measles in California. This is Humboldt County’s first case since 2011.

Yikes! I usually check the date of postings before sending them on. This one got by me. Thanks for the clarification.
No worries. I’m just glad I didn’t miss something.
Funny how hospitals and medical centers are a common ground for breesong disease… People.. Dont be so brainwashed. Eat well and take natural.meds and youll b suprised how strong u will b. The same folls who get sick.. How do u eat? Are U or yer children vaccinated? I believe in moat of the cases the patients eat shit food and are vaccinated.. End of disc.
That’s true 100% Medical Care Centers and hospitals are definitely places where people can get sick!!! Is it generally immunocompromised people are visiting those types of places?
Hmmm…SMH
Or those people gettong sick. Moat folmsks who dont vax have healthy immume children.
Why a picture from 1963?
That’s over 50 years old, why not a current picture?
Because Wikicommons is free and I can use it. And I’m broke. I really doubt that measles look a lot different today then they did when the photo was taken.
Pregnant ladies,
stay away from anybody with measles.
Mortality rate for measles in USA in last 20y is near zero. People need to calm the fuck down about vaccines.
No vaccine is 100% effective .
4billion dollars paid out on vaccine injury /death claims. Those are the numbers u should fear.
Fear,
thanks.
Not 1 person has ever produced a study that proves vaccines work, the commenters provide news clips that are not sourced.
And thanks about the vaccine court info.
If vaccines don’t cause harm why is there a vaccine court that’s paid out at least millions?
Also if vaccines are so great why don’t most doctors get vaccinated and why don’t most doctors get their kids vaccinated?
The only ones who say that vaccines are without risk are the ones who deny their fixtures. Of course there are risks with vaccinations. Just less risks than letting the diseases run rampant, which is the result of not vaccinating.
How can anyone use the absence of a disease as a cry against vaccinating when that very absence is the reason for the absence in the first place? The very idea is a contradiction. If measles had been eliminated worldwide or if the US did not allow travellers to come into the country, then the risks of vaccination might be greater than the risks of not vaccinating. However measles is especially virulent. An unvaccinated population is an inevitable epidemic sooner or later. Why do you think that doctors assume that anyone born before 1957 when the vaccine became widely available is immune? Because the disease was so very wide spread that it’s pretty safe to assume that people had had suffered through it.
I think everyone needa to remember to eat well and get nutrition. Anti vax pro vax its all stupid and diseases arent going anywhere and will evolve to do what they do no matter what.
Yet how many people do you know with polio? Pre vaccination, every year there were outbreaks of that disease. In the US. Suddenly upon vaccination being available, it stopped making headlines. You think FDR was malnourished? Yet he got the disease as an adult that left him crippled for the rest of his life. Vaccines aren’t perfect and could be made even safer but most diseases are not prevented by good nutrition. Simply the chances of surviving them are better if the victim is healthy to start with.
I believe in vaccines. What I don’t believe in is the government telling me what to do with the health of my child. This is a slippery slope and a fine line. I chose to vaccinate my child on an alternate schedule. I think it’s better for some of these vaccinations to be given when children are a little older and their bodies are stronger. I also think it was easier on his body to space them apart rather then give them all in one visit. MY CHOICE! He was fully vaccinated when he started school, on a schedule that I was comfortable with. I support a parents right to choose what is best for their child! I don’t support the government interfearing with that.
Wouldn’t it be wonderful if people were all so thoughtful about it. But there are parents who simply are not that way. There will always be a few who don’t care that much about their children or are easily frightened by the horror stories on the internet or are too incompetent to be thoughtful. And they have the power, if left to their own devices, to spread disease to those who can not make the choice for themselves.
But in the end, the government does not mandate everyone get vaccinated. Just those who go to public school and thus can spread disease easily. I hope that enough people continue to be willing to become vaccinated that the government will not try to force it. And I wish the people opposing vaccination were not so unreasonable that public health officials could investigate and publish results about minimizing the negative reactions from vaccines rather than constantly having to reinforce the basic concept.
” . . the public health officials could investigate and publish results . . .” <<<that is the most asinine statement of yours i've ever read.
For concerned parents, it should especially be noted that the first vaccine given to infants almost immediately following their birth is for Hepatitis B. The administration of this completely unnecessary vaccination has been determined to cause SIDS. Injecting babies with Hep B is perhaps the most misguided and ill-advised OB/GYN practice there is. Many a baby has certainly died from this inoculation and the parents were left wondering why … because the physicians always play dumb.
Why are known Carcinogens put into vaccines?
That most vaccines contain cancer-causing ingredients has been completely ignored by the MSM, as it has by the medical and scientific research establishment. There are proven carcinogens in a dangerously high percentage of vaccines that are injected into every infant and schoolchild, the elderly and infirmed, the sick and the dying. Formaldehyde is perhaps the best known of these carcinogenic agents found in many vaccines and has been calculated as follows:
Vaccines that contain formaldehyde include nearly all pediatric and adult flu shots; all forms of pediatric and adolescent pertussis vaccines (DTaP and the teen version, Tdap); and injectable polio vaccines (IPV) vaccines. Vaccines given under special circumstances also contain formaldehyde: tetanus boosters (dT, DT and TT), Japanese encephalitis vaccine, rabies vaccines and anthrax vaccine (given as six doses).
Let’s add up the amount of formaldehyde, a known carcinogen, is injected into children by the time they are five years of age. Assuming they get all doses of all recommended vaccines on time and according to the 2012 vaccination schedule:
Hepatitis b – 3 doses x 15 mcg each
DTaP – 5 doses x 100 mcg each
Polio (IPV) – 5 doses x 200 mcg each
Influenza – 6 doses x 25 mcg each
Hepatitis A – 1 dose x 100 mcg each
Total: 1,795 mcg = 1.795 milligrams

Even the CDC admits that before the measles mass vaccination program was introduced, nearly everyone contracted measles and obtained lifetime immunity by age 15.
