Health Official Says Measles Outbreak Came from Overseas

Some had speculated that the measles had come from an illegal immigrant or foreign visitor and now a health official is confirming the likelihood of that speculation.

“We don’t know exactly how this outbreak started but we do think it was likely a person infected with measles overseas,” said Dr. Anne Schuchat of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on Thursday.

My cousin had a baby last month and was told on Friday that she nor the baby can go outside for 21 days because of Measle outbreak in Phoenix.

No, not “overseas” - OVER LAND - to the immediate south of the USA to be exact, folks who were literally railroaded here unimpeded from Mehico .... just another form of Bio-terrorism our PINO is perpetrating on the American sheeple.

Has there been any transparency for where
infected illegal “immigrants” quartered
by Obola, with the licking consent of the 113th Congress,
were put, yet?

If they truly “don’t know” what’s going on here at the CDC, they should all be fired and imprisoned as a real danger to the Public.

Are the measles dangerous, I haven’t heard of anyone dieing from it. Is it just an annoyance?

American citizen kids going to school have to have vaccines. This is due only to the swarm of illegals.

CANNOT. The Dr. firmly said the are to stay home for 21 days. Now, if you are a new monther, wouldn’t that scare the bejeesus out of you. Plus, the husband is a teacher.

Some of this is probably illegals. And some of it is all those liberals who refuse to vaccinate their kids.

If a pregnant woman contracts measles there is a high risk that her child will have serious birth defects.

I disagree. As much as it makes sense, seems logical, you are ignoring two important items.

1 - The CDC rep said overseas, and he said it because that is exactly what he meant. IMHO, it is because they have identified the 'strain' and know exactly where that strain originates.

2 - South America isn't the only place that children don't get vaccinations. They don't get them in most of the middle eastern nations either. THE PRESIDENT just arranged for 75,000 Syrian Muslims to be flown in to our country (locations to be settled unspecified as yet). Tens of Thousands from other M.E. countries have already been brought in. Refugees have been coming here from Africa and just about anywhere else you can name.

just another form of Bio-terrorism our PINO is perpetrating on the American sheeple.

That, I agree with.

I understand why the doctor would say this as the baby’s newborn immunities may not be strong enough yet. Is he speaking out about the source of the measles in Phoenix is he as clueless as the CDC? Poor dear daddy may be a carrier from the classroom. This is so awful I can’t stand it. These are criminals are risking the lives of our children and do not care what happens.

While ebola strikes more fear into our hearts, measles is much, much, much more contagious.

Ah, Frieden of the CDC Frieden, huh. Frieden who hadn’t bothered to have the proper Ebola protocol at all US hospitals and gave me my tag line. Yeah, that Frieden. But now he’s all hyper about measles. Either he’s getting a kickback from the vaccine or he knows the outbreak is out of control.
