The outbreak now spans four counties.
All cases are in unvaccinated people or people with unknown vaccination status. Of the 48 cases, 42 are in children, including 13 between the ages of 0 and 4. Thirteen people (27 percent) have been hospitalized.
Just a reminder that this is bad for everyone, not just the unvaccinated. Every transmission represents millions of replications of the virus, and every replication is an opportunity for mutation. Every mutation has the potential to make the virus more infectious, vaccine resistant, drug resistant, or otherwise deadlier. This is not a darwin award thing, or an opportunity for schadenfreude. Anti-vaxxers pose a very real and violent threat to humanity.
So take away kids from anti vax parents? I’m down, probably will be less likely to generate stupid adults.
