"‘Operation Allies Welcome’ flights into the United States have been temporarily paused at the request of the [Centers for Disease Control] and out of an abundance of caution because of four diagnosed cases of measles among Afghans who recently arrived in the United States," White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki told reporters.
"All those who had been in contact with the infected person at base have been isolated, and post-exposure prophylaxis and inoculations are in process," the notice said.
It says that the virus is so contagious that if one person has it, up to 90% of the people close to that person who are not immune will also be infected, and that the virus can live for up to two hours in an airspace even after an infected person leaves the area.

I dont trust em. They swap allegiences in a heartbeat based on who pays em.
I have a problem with peeps all of a sudden having a conscious about Afghans after these past twenty years, aint no damned body on here cared about these people prior to 1996, but now we do?
Thats purely cuz of TV.
I still remember getting security briefings about Osama Bin Laden.....in 1996. Saudi offered his head on a platter and Clinton refused.
Bet nobody even remembers the Taliban blasting those ancient statues up.
Just saying...peeps need a reality check on Afghanistan, and check some history....plenty here on ATS to read about.

Illegal immigrants at the Mexican border have been bringing disease across the border for decades now.....including TB. Loads of articles about it. I did a paper on it in skool.
