Notice these states have tons of third world immigration, filthy

Yeah, it is a pretty dumb question.

It's not immigrant-borne, it's rodent-borne, transmitted by affected fleas, and it's been here forever, well before there was a United States to illegally immigrate to. We get a few cases per year, mostly in the affected states of the southwest.

It's easily treatable with antibiotics if caught in time.

I have a co-worker/two that said their kids had hoof-mouth disease recently. I was like “Where the F* do you pick up HMD??”, then I remembered the POOR, poor ‘immigrants’ from S. of the border that weren’t turned back/etc.....

But, since nobody seems to care about a ‘little’ HMD, what’s a bit of plague going to do? Whip up the Citizenry to make their capital/D.C. do the right thing? Ha!
