Whooping cough is a highly contagious respiratory infection.The infection causes severe coughing fits followed by a whooping sound on inhaling and, often, vomiting.It is particularly serious for children aged up to two years of age, but especially infants less than six months where it can be fatal.In this age range, between 0.5 and 1 per cent of children who catch whooping cough die from the disease, but the outlook improves in older children.”I don’t care whether you want to try and prove to me that vaccinations and herd immunities don’t work,” Ms Harreman said.”I don’t care that vaccinations have side effects, because every person in this world reacts differently to all types of food, products and medicines.”I could not care less, even if it is ever proven one day that they don’t work.”Because at least at the end of the day I tried to do something to prevent this and not sit there and say ‘oh well, vaccinations don’t work so I’ll just sit here and do nothing’ … because doing nothing goes against every cell in my body as a mother.”Doing nothing is just wrong.

The suggestion of basing refugee status on religion offended President Obama on Monday. Speaking at a news conference in Turkey, he called the idea un-American.“When I hear political leaders suggesting that there would be a religious test for which a person who’s fleeing from a war-torn country is admitted, when some of those folks themselves come from families who benefited from protection when they were fleeing political persecution — that’s shameful,” the president said.

Rauner halts new Syrian refugees in Illinois – Chicago Tribune
{Good thing we did not let refugees in from Cuba, Hungary, Vietnam, Cambodia, Nicaragua – oops – we did let them in because American believed in helping those who were fleeing oppression and wanted freedom. Guess these governors are saying they are for oppression and against people who want to be free. Maybe it is these governors who should be asked to leave?}
Bruce Rauner announced Monday that Illinois will temporarily stop taking in new Syrian refugees, joining seven other Republican governors in the wake of the Paris attacks. Rauner’s decision comes after officials said at least one of the Paris attackers entered Europe amid the recent influx of migrants from the war-torn country.”Our nation and our state have a shared history of providing safe haven for those displaced by conflict, but the news surrounding the Paris terror attacks reminds us of the all-too-real security threats facing America,” Rauner said in a statement. “We must find a way to balance our tradition as a state welcoming of refugees while ensuring the safety and security of our citizens.”Rauner said his office will “consider all of our legal options” as the U.S. Department of Homeland Security undergoes a review of acceptance and security processes.
