What difference does it make, a foreigner either way...unvacinated. Calif. just doesn't want Trump to gloat, hence it's those nasty anti vaxers as far as they are concerned.

You may be right GOM. It has been reported that the outbreak in the East has been traced to one individual returning from over seas. Returning from overseas - immigrant? I'm not positive, but it is my understanding that he was not an immigrant but someone who lived in New York. It is also my understanding that he is being held in quarantine.

People who return from overseas can be Americans you know. Lots of Americans regularly travel overseas. Yes, the bottom line problem are the idiots are the anti Vaxers. (Which Trump used to support BTW.).

Nonsense, there have always been anti-vaxers, but they are small numbers compared to the flood of immigrants we have gotten the last few years.

The ones who are vaccinated have nothing to worry about. It's the anti vaxers that's catching it.

Unfortunately the number of those not getting vaccines in the US has been steadily growing to the point where formerly eradicated diseases are making come backs. The sources are not just immigrants as much as anti immigration folks want you to believe that. Look how you have jumped to the assumption that someone returning from overseas must be a foreigner.

I'd probably be in big trouble if I were exposed. I need to check with my doctor.
