Texas Health Warning of “measles parties” like Divide in West Texas I slept to At least 146 casesWith 20 in the hospital and One child is not counted at the age of dead. The outbreak of children mainly continues in non -fortified children.
At a press conference hosted by Lubok, Texas, on Friday, Ron Cook, the chief health official at the University of Texas Health Sciences Center in Lubok, presented a flagrant warning to Texas in his opening statements.
Cook said: “What I want to hear is: It is not good to go to the measles parties because what may happen is – we cannot predict who will perform badly with measles, or be transferred to the hospital, and may suffer from pneumonia or encephalitis and / or move away from this.” “This is a foolish idea to go to the measles party. The best thing you have to do is make sure you are well vaccinated.”
Lubuk sits about 90 miles northwest In Jeans CountyIt is one of the least vaccinations in the state. I recorded 98 out of 146 cases. While Lubok reported only two of 146 cases, patients were treated elsewhere in Lubok. This includes the first two cases in the outbreak of the disease as well as the child who died due to the infection earlier this week, who was not resident in Lubok.
It is unclear whether any of the ends of measles occur in Gaines or anywhere else. “It was mostly … talking about social media,” said Cook, in response to a follow -up question from ARS. He pointed out that the measles parties and chickenpox parties were more common practices for decades, before vaccines were available to both diseases. But he warned again of the risks today. “Please, don’t do it. It’s just foolish. It plays roulette.”
Cook, along with Lubok’s Public Health Director, Catherine Wells, said they see no end on the horizon for the outbreak of the disease, which now extends nine provinces in Texas, which has low vaccination rates. “This fascism will continue to grow,” Wales said, and refused to predict the high number of final cases after a reporter raised the possibility of several hundreds.
To date, 116 out of 146 cases are less than 18 years old, with 46 years or less. Only five out of 146 was vaccinated with at least one dose of measles vaccine, mumps, and measles (MMR).
Correspondence
In a more positive note, Wales stated that the disease outlines seems to affect some parents whose children are vaccinated. Only yesterday in Lopoc, more than 50 children came to the city clinic in favor of measles vaccines. Eleven of these children had vaccines exemptions, which means that their parents have passed through the state process to exempt their child from receiving routine childhood vaccines to enroll in school. “It is a really good sign; this means that our message comes out there.”
So far in the outbreak, which erupted in late January, the correspondence about the disease and the importance of vaccination exclusively from the governmental and local authorities. Centers control and prevention control only Summary statement Late Thursday, which was not sent through the agency’s press distribution list. However, I noticed that “vaccination is still the best defense against measles infection.”
During the cabinet meeting on Wednesday, the Minister of Health in the United States and the Anti -Qazi Defenders, Robert F. answered. Kennedy Junior has a question about the outbreak of fascism, as he presented a variety of inaccurate information. Kennedy reduced the outbreak of fascism, claiming that he was “unusual.” In fact, this is an extraordinary year for class in the United States. The epidemic world Katlin Gitelina noticed on Blues The total number of the case exceeded eight out of 15 years ago. It is only February.
