Lancaster PA. Home to the Amish who have never been big on vaccinating. Ever. So, that variable didn't change.

What did change is their exposure to 3rd world diseases that crossed the border under the previous administration. No vetting. No health checks. No quarantine.

While we weren't allowed freedom of movement, they were. That was evil incarnate.

Well said.....a very powerful argument in favour of getting vaccinated if I ever read one.

RFK, Jr recently affirmed that, regarding the measles vaccine.

But my takeaway is that it's a powerful argument against unfettered immigration from the 3rd world.

Thought unfettered immigration was halted and totally under control since Jan 2025? How long does measles hang around?

Please present evidence that these measles cases were linked to immigration.

If not, your takeaway is based on nothing but supposition and can be dismissed out of hand.

As Hitchen's Razor states, "What is asserted without evidence, can be dismissed without evidence."

It'll be months (if ever) before they release the identities or even the age or ethnicity of the victims. And by then, it'll be a distant memory on the MSM news cycle. Just like this one was:
