Strange article.

(NaturalNews) In between breaths blaming the unvaccinated for spreading measles (and somehow putting the entire world at risk of suffering and death, depending upon which propaganda outlets you follow), the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recently admitted that illegal immigrants are likely to blame for sparking this latest outbreak.

Either that or it was an American who, prior to visiting Disneyland, had traveled abroad and caught the disease, admitted a CDC official during a recent press conference. In either case, it remains unclear whether or not patient zero had, in fact, been vaccinated, despite a constant media barrage claiming that "anti-vaxxers" are to blame for this alleged resurgence of a disease that was never truly eradicated.

"We don't know exactly how this outbreak started but we do think it was likely a person infected with measles overseas," stated Dr. Anne Schuchat from the CDC. "We assume that someone got infected with measles overseas, visited Disneyland park, and spread the disease to others."

It doesn't provide any links to this claim. In fact, in trying to find an actual quote or original source, I found nothing to support it. What I found was this recent admission:

CDC Official Dismisses Claim That Undocumented Immigrants Bring Measles Into The U.S.

Despite claims to the contrary from some of the loudest anti-immigration reform voices in the Republican Party, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention stressed on Monday that undocumented immigrants are not bringing measles into the United States.

Dr. Anne Schuchat, director for the National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases, dismissed claims tying undocumented immigrants to the recent measles outbreak that has afflicted individual communities and sparked a broader national debate about vaccination policy.

“We don’t have evidence to support that,” Schuchat said during a webinar hosted by the National Press Foundation.

I can't believe anybody could be so willfully ignorant.

Of course there's an uptick in measles. We're importing undocumented, unvaccinated people at an unprecedented rate, and turning them loose into our schools...where more and more children are UNVACCINATED thanks to the media-induced left-wing anti-vaccine hysteria...

 

[HenryBHough]

This cries out for correction!

Obviously a housecleaning is in order at The CDC.

Word on the street is Obama's already searching for a tax-evader with no medical or management background to step in and put things back as God (He, Himself) intended.

"Starting in 2000, virtually all new cases of measles came from abroad.."

"In 2014 there were 23 outbreaks in 27 states, accounting for 664 infections, possibly spurred by a large outbreak in the Philippines...."

"Most American measles outbreaks have been started by people coming to the U.S. from other countries where the disease is more common, including Europe and the Philippines. "

Seems fairly obvious. But that means most people don't realize.

Measles was eradicated in this country in 2000.

So who brought it back?

"Reports of diseased immigrant children mirror Nazi propaganda

The surge of refugee immigrant children to America’s southern border has ignited a vehement anti-immigrant tone in reporting by many independent news organizations and bloggers. In an effort to create justification for the deportation of these children without granting refugee status, many of these reporters are echoing propaganda tactics eerily reminiscent of the Nazi campaign against European Jews during World War II.

The techniques used by today’s reporters and bloggers include not-so-subtle characterizations of the children, including the repeated use of the term “illegal alien” over “refugee” or “undocumented immigrant,” which is the far more correct legal designation. The loaded term “illegal alien,” and the often-unfounded implications it carries, is the reason why respected news organizations like Associated Press no longer use the term in general.

A far more insidious technique employed by writers in anti-immigrant press, however, takes a page out of the Nazi propaganda handbook. It involves using legitimate examples of sick immigrant children with various ailments, some serious, and depicting it as far more widespread and dangerous than it actually is."

Well gee, we allow people to come here to say go to school, or visit Disneyland. Shall I call Mickey Mouse and tell him he's been a bad bad mouse for letting those people ride the rides and eat the outrageously overpriced food?

And had the kids at the park with them had their shots, they wouldn't have gotten sick.

And once again.....there is no evidence that the measles outbreaks are linked to 'undocumented' people. According to the CDC the most likely origin is either tourists, or Americans returning from areas with outbreaks of Measles

And while the left wing has more than our share of anti-vaxx idiots, a fair amount of anti-vaxx idiots are right wing anti-government idiots who believe vaccinations are all part of the government conspiracy.

People- vaccinate your children.

From the OP link:

Said American would most likely have to be unvaccinated.

Regardless of who Patient Zero is, the measles outbreak would not have gotten anywhere if everyone was vaccinated.

Foreigners and Americans who travel.

Personally I don't think we should discourage all foreign tourists and Americans travelling.

People vaccinate your children.

The vast majority of immigrants come from countries that have the same rate of vaccination that the US does. Nothing but bullshit in the OP.
