The vaccination rates in Mexico and the US are almost identical thus meaning that the probability that an illegal immigrant child from Mexico has approximately the same chance of having measles as America child.

Literacy in Mexico is pretty high too. I’d guess illegals are quite a bit less likely than the average Mexican to be literate or to be vaccinated.

Who claimed that the primary vector originated in Mexico?

How may illegal aliens entered this country recently that were from south of the Mexican border?

Measles was entirely contained and controlled in this country prior to the recent deluge of illegal aliens entering from our Southern border, and that flow of illegal aliens originate from more or less every corner of the Southern countries of this hemisphere and many from outside of the Americas.

Oh good grief, there are untold thousands of people in Mexico who have no idea of what a doctor is.

I really doubt your statement - show me empirical evidence. There is little agruement that 3rd world children have more diseases than the USA. Mexico is 3rd world, so is Africa with all their diseases. Remember, ten's of thousands of children just came up from Central America. If you believe they had immunizations then you are beyond discussion.

The vaccination rates in Mexico don’t have much to do with the current outbreaks. At lot of those kids come from further south and pass through Mexico on their way to El Norte. They are most likely not vaccinated and are bringing the diseases with them.
