People of Washington State should not complain. They elected the officials that let this happen.

Zou Donnie hier ook al verstand van hebben? Ben benieuwd !!

Ummm, there’s a vaccine for that.

Making America Great Again ...

37 cases...

Parent 'soo my kids will be 95% 90% protected from the MM'. Dr 'yes' Parent 'nahh I'm good'

So unvaccinated illegals aren’t bringing contagious diseases into the US?

If only there was something to prevent that. Could call it vaccination

The Vaccines for measles given in America are not the same for measles introduced by another country. Where are most of these outbreaks? California, Texas, Washington? Herd vaccine is a ploy for hive minds.

This is sickening...

Fallout music starts playing

That's what happens when Democrats chose Illegals over Americans BuildTheWall

Let’s keep allowing people to enter illegally. What’s the worse that could possibly happen? Google Tuberculosis Mankato for extra credit.

WA state agreed to let parents chose irresponsibility over responsibility. How about pregnant WA moms who are now at risk of exposing life altering consequences to their unborn. This has got to stop.

Keep that shit there.

realDonaldTrump joehoe.. shut down healtcare joehoe joehoe.. mayday mayday..

And it's all President Trumps fault.
