    Is it terrorism or vaccination?

    Some people are just crazy. Why not deport this guy instead of some random Hispanic?

      It’s ridgefield, so it’s probably them trying to infect people purposefully.

        Is Ridgefield infamous somehow for its crazies or something?

          I wouldn’t say infamous. But there is a stretch of suburbs north of Vancouver WA that has a lot of churchy people. Ridgefield, Battleground. That’s where you find Trump flags and coal rolling trucks.

            I used to live up that way. North Clark county and Cowlitz county has some beautiful countryside inhabited by some really ugly people. They even have their own park:

              I love going for drives up there. I like the cute little farms with the goats and cows. I pretend they aren’t maga, but I won’t get out of my car lol.

      You can be contagious for several days before symptoms appear and you even know you are infected.

        I think OP is assuming this guy is unvaccinated, what with how odds highly favor that scenario. In which case, he is responsible if he spreads the disease.

          Oh, for a minute there I was taken back to 2021 when the far-right were talking about “vaccine shedding” for the Covid mRNA vaccine, LOL.

      Measles will destroy your existing immunities so it’s definitely not vaccination.
