Man I'm worried about measles in the next year. All the health departments being gutted, I don't think we're going to have a good tracking system to know how far and wide it's going to spread. Big outbreak in Mexico that traces from the Texas outbreak. I am thankful that my immediate area is 95% vaccinated for MMR which should be good for herd immunity but there are a looooot of places these days that are below that. Kids don't deserve this and they will be the ones to suffer.
