The CDC sent a private warning to the chief of Afghan evacuation operations detailing a measles outbreak among refugees that poses a major threat to public health.
In the memo, CDC Director Rochelle Walensky urged Operations Allies Welcome to take “urgent public health action” including mass vaccinations of refugees, as there are now six confirmed cases, 17 suspected and hundreds of exposures.
“The large number of unvaccinated Afghan evacuees as seen already has the potential to seed countless U.S. community outbreaks,” Walensky said, per Just the News. “These outbreaks represent a major public health threat and rapid mass vaccination and expanding quarantine and isolation capacities are essential.”
She added that the current case numbers indicate the potential for “much larger imminent outbreaks” that could overwhelm hospitals already battling the Delta variant.
“Immediate implementation of CDC public health standards is imperative to prevent introduction of measles into US communities and to respond to multiple concurrent measles outbreaks,” Walensky wrote. “Health care facilities are already at limited capacity as they battle the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, which requires tremendous workforce in laboratory assets.”
“Failing to swiftly execute the measures outlined above will likely result in increased exposure to evacuees and personnel supporting OAW operations, including safe havens,” she wrote. “Further, evacuates who have not been vaccinated (41% of children under five years old are not currently protected against measles) pose a public health threat.”

This is just bonus that obama and his evil entities did not count on. How nice to share their diseases and their satanic rituals with
America. Spreading it so thin that you don’t notice until it has covered our country entirely.
THIS IS WHY WE Shouldn’t have brought so damn many INTO AMERICA@@!!!!
Don’t American children still get Measles vaccinations? If they are vaccinated against Measles aren’t they protected from catching it?
The Fauci boys following the science on Covid have screwed up the idea of vaccinations forever.
Isn’t it about time for Biden and Fauci to start forcing everyone to get a flu shot?
I don’t think they are keeping info on FLU cases or deaths anymore. They do not want anyone to compare stats on the two.
Anyone who catches and dies from the flu, is most likely listed as a COVID death.
Welcome to America ahab.
NOW go the hell back home!
This is just a sign of how things will be shaping up in the future. Several years ago there were reports, long since muted, that certain diseases, usually childhood, had been all but eradicated in the United States due to legal vaccination requirements for schools, and where did they turn up? Among the illegal alien population! Now the threat is even greater with more people from more places without health regulations being given a pass at the borders to infect with whatever they might be carrying, deseases which haven’t been heard about in this country for years!
These are not people with diseases they are democratic votes.
Whether alive or dead…
