Measles cases spread among unvaccinated family members

According to health officials, the six people that have been diagnosed with the virus are in Davison County, and are made up of three adults and three children. The children range from under the age of five all the way to teenagers. Health officials say they are all part of an extended family that came together for a holiday celebration. None of them are vaccinated against the measles. [KDLT teevee]
If untreated, measles is deadly. Recall that South Dakota Senator don Juan Thune wanted to block travel to non-white Africa during the Ebola hysteria: think he'll call for a Davison County travel ban?

Yeah, right.
