Letter: Activists behind initiatives like Measure J
We have entered the political season. In San Benito County, Measure J is on the ballot. There has been, and no doubt will continue to be, a lot of claims and counterclaims about it. As is always the case in any political struggle, some claims are true, some are not.
Guest View: Work together on measles
California is at the center of a multi-state measles outbreak. It presumably started when an infected person (who has not been identified) visited Disneyland Resort Theme Parks in December 2014. About 40 people who visited or worked at the park became infected, and then people who were around those ill people, in doctor’s offices, schools and airplanes also became infected with this highly contagious virus. As of Feb. 6, over 100 cases in seven states had been reported as part of this outbreak. There are no cases in San Benito County.
