    I finally get it. They are intentionally getting measles, and therefore spots, so that they will blend in with all of the leopards. They knew Trump had a way where the leopards wouldn’t eat THEIR faces.

    At least they’ll get the distinction of being called The Measles Generation.

    We knew it was going to spread on spring break, and it’s going to spread more when the college kids head home for the summer. :/

      Most credible colleges require shot records. Even Baylor requires the MMR vaccine (https://healthservices.web.baylor.edu/services/immunizations#%3A~%3Atext=Routine+Immunizations+REQUIRED+for+enrollment%2Cfrom+first+day+of+class). I’m sure there are some crappy religious “colleges” that don’t require it, but unaware of it.
