I hate to agree with Dr. Ben Carson about anything (let alone link to NewsMax) ...

... but I appreciate him coming out strongly regarding vaccinations. This should not be a political issue. I'd hate to see this become a thing that divides people across partisan lines. Public health is too important.

** not sure if my link is showing up - I'm not seeing it - but Ben Carson says everyone should vaccinate (excluding those who can't for medical reasons).

1. You dont need to link to a vile site like NewsMax if it is true, if true it will usually show up

somewhere credible, and your link doesnt show, which is fine by me.

But I appreciate you posting this because I agree that we should not allow partisan politics to get in the way here.

2. Not to worry he is blaming "undocumented people" for outbreak. Despicable has not gone away.

4. IIRC, during the latest 'southern invasion'...

the immigrant children were better vaccinated than many American kids.

3. There was an OP entered earlier today...

from a more reliable source than NewsMax; I think it was from TPM. But, Carson is now blaming the outbreak on:

5. Thanks for the updates

Hadn't realized he was now blaming the outbreak on the undocumented. Gross. Now that's the Dr. Carson we've come to know and despise.

6. Plenty of people to agree with who don't blame immigrants for the measles.....

Virtually the entire world favors vaccination, no reason to cite a bigot like Carson.
