Manhattan’s Mount Sinai Hospital will perform the surgery at no cost.
Last weekend, the baby girl’s family tried to enter the country with a tourist visa through Portland, Oregon. But they were abruptly turned back as natives of one of seven Muslim-majority countries whose citizens are banned under the president’s executive order.
Private funds will cover travel costs for the infant and her family...

Very nice of Mt. Sinai. But there is no such thing as “no cost”. Someone ultimately pays.
Why would they go through Portland Oregon if they are coming from Iran and going to Manhatten?
This is a nice thing to do, but why must America always bend over backwards to do what’s right, when Iran refuses to release long term American prisoners held there? I used to feel very differently, back when I supported “Good Will Diplomacy” in hopes of making a dictatorship consider our open way of life. Iraq and Afghanistan have proved that this doesn’t work on a large scale. We have wasted billions of dollars and endangered thousands of troops attempting to remold these tribal groups.
I wanted to sell a kidney and found out Iran was the only nation in the world where it was legal to do so. I’ll play lotto instead.
So i can take my kids there too for free medical care ?
Iranian are persans, not arabs, very ethnically different. They hate to be called arabs, even more Iraqis.
Why not include China and PP and start a bidding war?
Previously owned? Still in good condition? Two-year money-back guarantee?
Regards,
Mean to say there is absolutely no other place in the world that could perform this procedure?
I know. Do it for the children.
“Manhattan’s Mount Sinai Hospital will perform the surgery at no cost.”
Should be
“Manhattan’s Mount Sinai Hospital will perform the surgery and raise the price of every other procedure performed there to make up the arbitrary discount provided to the Iranian family.”
discount provided to the Iranian family.”.......Wait...What? Didn’t the Mocha Messiah just send Iran a couple dozen pallets of our money? Bill the bastards twice the cost.
Should have traveled to Israel, its closer.
Don’t they have doctors in wonderful iran?
Why isn’t it being sent to Cuba?
A baby girl...I hope she’s not pregnant with an anchor baby.../s
