Info graphic asking, “Do you need a measles booster?” The graphic has an arrow segmented into different colors indicating each time period below. Born before 1957? Nope, you were probably already exposed to measles. Vaccinated between 1957-1962? Maybe, check with your doctor. Vaccinated between 1963-1967? Yes! The measles vaccine you received is nonsidered ineffective and you will need a booster. Vaccinated between 1968-1989? Maybe. Check with your doctor. Vaccinated after 1989? Nope. If you received two doses, your vaccines are considered effective.

For all of us who are able to get vaccinated, let’s do our part and keep our community safe.

GOP leaders advise lawmakers to stop hosting town halls altogether.

This matters. Not because I think Trump is capable of mercy or empathy towards these vulnerable groups. But because it is a public act of defiance.

Contrast that with all these other powerful people in this country signaling nothing but appeasement and obedience.

Done!
