There are hangover and hangover, but that of the concert that Shakira offered last Thursday at the Metlife stadium, in East Rutherford (New Jersey), has the range of being of another dimension.
In a country like the United States, which is the advance of science, which adds more Nobel Prizes than anyone in this matter, the head of Health, the non -medical one (or anything similar) Robert Kennedy Jr., undermines the credibility of vaccines, such as measles, of which he has said that he will not recommend its use.
Kennedy does not support the measles vaccine but asks that they do not pay much attention
The propagation of this disease reaches quotas in this country not seen since the last century, to the point that the Department of Health itself has launched the alarm between the public of the Waka Waka held at the Metlife – one of the greatest enclosures of the American tour of Women no longer cry with 82,000 seats), after detecting that one of the attendees suffered measles, a disorder that is transmitted quickly through the air.
The official statement explains that this infected person came from outside the State. The health leaders urged all those who were in the concert to review and update the vaccination date, which “is the best way to protect themselves from this ailment”, contrary to the philosophy of their maximum political chief.
In that statement, anyone who attended the show is recommended, and believes having contracted measles, calling your doctor before going to any medical office or emergency service to receive treatment, so that special measures can be taken to prevent greater propagation.

As a prevention guide they recalled that the symptoms of measles, which include coughing, nasal secretion, eye inflammation, sore throat, fever and the usual red rashes, do not appear up to ten or fourteen days after the exposure. Serious complications may include pneumonia or encephalitis, according to authorities.
That said, Kennedy dynamite all those precautions daily. Although it advises citizens that they do not have to pay attention to their medical advice – “My opinion on vaccines is irrelevant” – their views are causing that in many territories controlled by conservatives, measles expands. There are already more than 1,200 diagnosed.

Kennedy’s response was not to encourage vaccination, but that of complacency. “We are doing better than any other nation,” he said last week in an appearance in Congress.
Experts, including those who work in their department, are alarmed. The Secretary of Health does not dare to speak openly against vaccines, but are encouraging all types of approach to attack their healing capacity. And he wants to change how they are touched, which will limit their access and make citizens lose confidence in immunization.
