16 cases are linked to a church, which followed exposures at four schools last week.

    Worst drivers in the entire country and some of the worst roads plus Lindsay Graham. Now measles at church, too? God hates South Carolinians.

      You die, get reborn and because you had committed enough sins in the previous life … you are reborn in South Carolina

    Of the 111 outbreak cases, 105 were unvaccinated, three were partially vaccinated, two had an unknown status, and one case was fully vaccinated.

      I would not be surprised if the only vaccinated person caught it at the hospital while on immunosuppressant for some surgery or something.

    I grew up in Spartanburg, SC and find this unsurprising.
