I'd say the bigger problem is retarded parents that don't vaccinate their kids and expose the community.  The CDC seems to get a kick out of tracking outbreaks and its always fun to map the outbreak from someone's neighborhood all the way back to their kid's summer camp.

Edit - not saying illegals don't cause issues with it, but a lot of kids wouldn't get sick if they were up on their vaccinations.

If you're vaccinated you most likely won't get sick even if the whole fucking neighborhood is.

Those shit bags. Are we ever going to end this? We need motion detecting guns at the border every 10 feet with moats filled with crocs and patrol grizzy bears followed by mine fields in front of 1000's of snipers that have the greatest gear known to man. That will stimulate the economy by making more jobs and not allowing jobs to be taken at the same time.

While I lived in Arizona we had outbreaks of measles, chicken pox and many employees were exposed to tuberculosis all thanks to illegals in custody.  We would have many staff out sick when those from across the border would bring viruses with them.  Since I quit working down there I haven't been sick once in the last few years.  Used to get tested for TB every year as did all the other employees.

Uhm...Even vaccinated people are getting sick.  It doesn't always take, especially with the younger children, or someone that was vaccinated 50 years ago.

Let's see, our money is/will soon be worthless, communicable diseases once under control or extinct are recurring, our leader is a lying POS who hates us, our language/culture is being destroyed from influences both internal and external, high unemployment, soon to be majority welfare class and we have a really good soccer team. Looks like we reached third world country status a lot sooner than the Romans. All we need to do next is to allow citizenship for illegals based on military service.

The Latino community in California has been hard-hit by a recent epidemic of whooping cough that has killed 10 infants, nine of them Hispanic.

The outbreak of whooping cough, or pertussis, started in May in Fresco, Calif., and has already infected over 6,200 people across the state, making it the largest pertussis epidemic since 1950.

This isn't true for whooping cough (pertussis).  It is mostly true for smallpox, measles, and tetanus (and many others).  However, pertussis immunity is not only difficult to maintain (needs regular boosters), but effective immunity for pertussis is only 59-89% for individuals who are current on their vaccination.  (Tetanus is 95%+ and smallpox immunity is almost 100%)  

Pertussis is difficult to immunize for two reasons.  

The first is that pertussis is really virulent.  50% of people who are not vaccinated will develop pertussis from a casual exposure.  (It's 90% for those who have regular exposure.)  Those numbers are similar to smallpox which is generally regarded as one of the most virulent diseases ever.   Even with immunization, pertussis infection rates are still about 15% for those who have regular exposure.

The second reason is that pertussis does not stimulate a strong immune response even for those with vaccination or direct exposure.  This is inherent in the disease.  Our body's just don't see pertussis as the invasive threat that it is.  This is why boosters are required and why even people who have been vaccinated still get sick.  This is also why people can have whooping cough for months if not years.

And I think you will find that the overwhelming majority of those kids were not vaccinated.



I don't doubt that illegal immigration can introduce exotic Third World diseases into the US, but pertussis isn't exotic or Third World; we've had it here for decades.  The only thing that keeps it under control is adequate immunization.

One conveniently ignored factoid is that antibiotics are available over the counter in Mexico and commonly taken like aspirin.  Because of the improper use/abuse of antibiotics they are breeding serious antibiotic resistant strains of most common bacterial diseases.  There will likely come a day in the forseeable future when we start having SERIOUS problems with infectious diseases again and little option to treat them.

From a public health perspective, my opinion is that we need to put far more emphasis on drug (antibiotics) control in Mexico and less on control of recreational drugs in the US.  Considering the state of the border, clueless pill poppers in Mexico have a greater risk of creating problems for me than do any American who chooses to use recreational drugs.

FWIW My sister in-law is a general pratice doctor, and her opinion is the illegals are bringing diseases back to the US. She has seen diseases that had been eliminated thru vacinations, start to reappear again.

I hate to rain on everyone's parade, but the overall incidence rate for TB has been on the decline for several years now.  Check out this link:



http://www.cdc.gov/tb/statistics/surv/surv2009/default.htm



The problem with TB today is that the number of drug-resistant TB cases is increasing, meaning that even though there are fewer cases more of them are drug-resistant.
