    Measles was officially eliminated from the United States in 2000, meaning there is no measles spreading within the country and new cases are only found when someone contracts measles abroad and returns to the country.

    Nope

      Yes the fuck it is, measles was a thing of the fucken past. The reality these fools construct is frustrating.

      Nope

      Why don’t you go click on the link that explains what elimination is when it comes to measles. It doesn’t mean there has been no new cases as you’re trying to claim.

      Your statement is wrong. You are wrong. If you can’t admit reality, then stay in denial as long as you need to.

        Measles was declared eliminated from the United States in 2000. This meant the absence of the continuous spread of disease was greater than 12 months. This was thanks to a highly effective vaccination program in the United States, as well as better measles control in the Americas region.

        You egg

            And when I said “a thing of the past” you assumed I meant it exists in no capacity. When what that means is its not a problem anymore.

              Prob because that is exactly what “a thing of the past” means by definition.

        You’re wrong, but will your pride get in the way of admitting it?
