if you are vaccinated it doesn’t matter. The viruses doesn’t evolve. To me, this is a whatever.

Please describe your training in virology. And then take a gander at this:


"Mayo Clinic researchers mapped how the measles virus mutated and spread in the brain of a person who succumbed to a rare, lethal brain disease."

All viruses evolve. Everything evolves. You mean mutate. While it mutates less than, say, Covid, it still mutates.
 
Nobody is stupid enough to believe viruses don’t evolve. This is lynch’s performative ignorance trolling.

This is why when you can eradicate a virus, you don't let it come back.

this is likely way under reported. they're telling people in areas where its a problem to just stay home unless they get really sick.

confirmed cases at an extremely high traffic aquarium and a rangers game in the last few weeks.
 
I'm 57 and I don't have a measles vaccination. My mother was not antivax (if that was a thing in the 60s), my twin is vaccinated as are my other siblings. I really need to get my GP to vax me up.

All anti-vaxxers are to blame. You think this girl's parents didn't get her vaccinated all by themselves? Or did they listen to an "expert" peddling bullshit?

Or maybe opening a border allowing anyone from anywhere, some places where they don't vaccinate for measles, might have something to do with it. Seems like if someone wanted to vaccinate in an attempt to eliminate a virus in order to protect a society, they wouldn't at the same time think it was a good idea to import the third world. Just a thought.
