You know - are most of them already vaccinated? None of them? I'm curious, but I would think most have been vaccinated. If not, then we have lots of un-vaccinated people coming into contact with other un-vaccinated people. CDC says 91% of people ages 19 months to 17 years have been vaccinated.

I did find this from the US National Library of Medicine, National Institutes of Health (1987):

An outbreak of measles occurred in a high school with a documented vaccination level of 98 per cent. Nineteen (70 per cent) of the cases were students who had histories of measles vaccination at 12 months of age or older and are therefore considered vaccine failures. Persons who were unimmunized or immunized at less than 12 months of age had substantially higher attack rates compared to those immunized on or after 12 months of age. Vaccine failures among apparently adequately vaccinated individuals were sources of infection for at least 48 per cent of the cases in the outbreak. There was no evidence to suggest that waning immunity was a contributing factor among the vaccine failures. Close contact with cases of measles in the high school, source or provider of vaccine, sharing common activities or classes with cases, and verification of the vaccination history were not significant risk factors in the outbreak. The outbreak subsided spontaneously after four generations of illness in the school and demonstrates that when measles is introduced in a highly vaccinated population, vaccine failures may play some role in transmission but that such transmission is not usually sustained.

With all the talk going on and on about a 'measles outbreak', I've heard nothing about WHO is getting sick. I do think I heard that the bulk of the recent cases are in New York, but I'm not certain of that. Anyone else have info on the who and where?
US Measles Cases in Just 5 Months of 2019 Have Exceeded Any Full Year Since 1992

Many of the U.S. outbreaks, including the one in the Pittsburgh area, can trace their origins back to other countries including Israel and the Philippines, because unvaccinated individuals who were traveling internationally brought in the highly contagious disease. Others, such as the one in New York, are being blamed on vaccine refusal in certain communities.

BTW, the United States recorded 41 new measles cases last week, bringing the year’s total number of cases to 981 in the worst outbreak of the disease since 1992, federal health officials said on Monday.

BUT, i don't want to deter away from this thread's topic. Sorry. Done with measles.

What's this about measles? I didn't read it, I was too busy getting drunk while reading about all you alcoholics!

vodka or gin IMO like drinking solvents ..
Yep, I'm 73 and take no meds of any kind. Drink a glass of cheap wine with dinner every day and a beer whenever we have pizza and can still work on my 4Runner, replaced the LCAs' yesterday and today. Used to binge drink a few times a week, beer and vodka tonics, but been about 20 years since I quit that.

I am pretty sure I drink too much (wine) on a daily basis, but I don't drink pop or milk, I don't eat meat, I never touch fast-food, and eat mostly fresh veggies and whole grains. I'm hoping one balances out the other.

The good news is, they'll be the last years so don't hassle it.

Yeah, I know this is an old thread, but here is the last picture of George Best, right before he died at age 59.

Alcohol and Brain Structural Damage

In fact, a very controversial theory, because scientists have also proved the positive effect of alcohol on the human body. It may also be that alcohol has two effects at the same time, it is positive and negative, like potions in games, when you drink it you improve some characteristics, but at the same time worsen others. Here we are already talking about a choice, but is it worth it or is it better to seek help from professionals who have been through this or know more about it so that they once and for all determine your position on alcohol and its consequences. However, it's up to you to decide whether to drink in the future or not.

Was going to post a witty retort here to get my post count up so I can ask a question. But having read through some of it, being witty in this thread doesn't really seem worth it, or appropriate. So I'll just say, +1 on the post count. Thanks and have a good day.
