I wonder what percent of ‘severe’ patients were ones brought over, from Mexico.
I know El Paso, TX met/transfered many, in EP ambulances, to local hospitals.
I imagine the same thing took place in CA and AZ, as well.
Probably not NM....as their healthcare is on par/maybe a step better, than Meheeco’s. 😬
That is a valid point !
I believe that is called 'unintended consequences' of having an "Open Border",
and represents additional financial liability and responsibility to the local communities tax base and infrastructure.
More illegal immigrants also means less room in hospitals for natives, and stretches the local resources.
Border Patrol has already indicated that approximately 10% of illegals are covid positive when they come over the border.
One can only imagine the number of positives after being warehoused in the crowded, official government holding facilities which are also in those same communities.
