When questioned about a growing measles outbreak in West Texas that has claimed at least one life, Health & Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told reporters “we have measles outbreaks every year.”
When questioned about a growing measles outbreak in West Texas that has claimed at least one life, Health & Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told reporters “we have measles outbreaks every year.”
Outbreak also had a technical meaning.
For a given time (e.g., within 2 weeks)
Within a specific location (e.g., linked by institution, affiliation, exposure, small geographic area)
If outbreaks were normal, it wouldn’t be an outbreak.
The CDC recorded 16 outbreaks in 2024.
Again, RFK Jr is a fucking clown and I wouldn’t trust him to watch my dog but technically he’s correct here.
Fair. But that is using a different definition for outbreak that whats shown on CDCs definition page.
Are you surprised by the lack of consistency or frustrated that we have to live with it?
Because of two datapoints? You need more than two years, one of which isn’t even done yet, to make that kind of determination.
That is a problem Democrats have. They have a holier-than-thou complex and then even when they are proven wrong, they refuse reality because they can’t imagine ever being wrong.
I’m confused… You say Democrats but then go on to describe the behavior of conservatives.
I was with you in your other comments and then you had to generalize an entire population of people. Hivemind idiots on the internet doesnt mean you can do that.
Not every Democrat is a hivemind idiot, but a big enough percentage that It contributed to their loss. Harris was one as well. Biden, “you ain’t black” definitely.
You have no idea the distribution of idiocy between Republicans and Democrats give me a break. Its all vibe based on your specific newsfeed.
With a constantly changing narrative for each party im not sure how people even associate themselves with either party outside of voting for president/congress/senate. The more specific you get the more irrelevant it becomes.
