KEYWORDS: immigration; obamasfault; zika
All the cases are connected to travel to areas with outbreaks of the mosquito-borne virus, primarily Latin America and the Caribbean.


These citizen babies, due to being born in the USA, regardless of the immigration status of their mothers will need life time medical care because of their birth defects.

Looks like one is a Honduran immigrant, possibly illegal, the other a Hawaiian who was in Brazil.

“We need to bring back DDT.”

That would be profiling. Won’t be long til mosquitos are on the same Protect and Coddle list as muzzies, BLM, college students, climate cultists, etc.

These illegal mothers are part of Bath House’s ongoing biological, cultural and economic warfare against the citizens of this country.

“We need to bring back DDT.”

And the first ton produced should be airdropped on the Rachel Carson Bridge in Pittsburgh.

I’m sure that mosquitos will soon be on the protected species list - little babies: not so much.

(Also reported in the original article):" But during the Zika epidemic in Brazil,
the virus was identified as a cause of fetal deaths and potentially devastating birth defects.

In its birth defects numbers, the CDC is counting a range of conditions.
Chief among them is microcephaly, a severe birth defect in which a baby's skull is much smaller than expected because the brain hasn't developed properly.

But also in the count are calcium deposits in the brain; excess fluid in and around the brain;
abnormal eye development; and other problems resulting from damage to the brain that can include clubfoot or inflexible joints."
