How come the illegals being held at the border arent getting vaxed? Even when there are 300 CASES! But its a HEALTHCARE EMERGENCY in Wash. when there are 8 cases.  You are referring to a mumps outbreak in Texas illegal detention centers, I believe. They are vaccinating for Measles, Mumps, Rubella Polio TDaP - Tetanus and Diphtheria Toxoids, Pertussis Haemophilus influenzae type B Hepatitis B . But, you have to get to them and administer the vaccine and wait a couple weeks before it become effective. They can still catch mumps and spread it during this lag time. Also, mumps vaccine is about 75% effective for one dose and 88% effective for 2 doses. . Mumps immunity can also be overcome by intense exposure in close contact situations like dorms, sports teams, incarceration facilities, etc. It is fine for protecting against casual contact but can't withstand repeated intense exposure to the mumps paramyxovirus. R. Common sense would dictate that we should not let in any of these people who need to have ALL THOSE VACCINATIONS. These people should not be let in here AT ALL. THAT is the answer. Then we won't have to vaccinate them either. In fact, fuck all of those people, I don't give a shit about them.
