Steep federal funding cuts have forced public health officials in one of Texas’ most populous counties — Dallas — to cancel dozens of vaccination clinics and lay off 21 workers on the front lines of combatting the state’s growing measles outbreak.

“I just had to tell our commissioners this morning that we’ve had to cancel over 50 different clinics in our community,” said Dr. Philip Huang, director and health authority for the Dallas County Health and Human Services Department.

So the poorest, who already are dealing with a tough set of circumstances are paying the price for the nonsensical cuts coming from...well, you know where. I just don't understand how we as a country have so little empathy and/or compassion.
