Refugees resettled in Colorado developed active TB at a rate 138 times higher than U.S.-born residents of Colorado.

The number of refugees resettled in Colorado between 2011 and 2015 diagnosed with active TB may actually be higher than sixteen, since the most recent total does not include any refugees who may have been diagnosed in 2015.

138 time higher than American born residents of Colorado?
Is it possible they contracted it in the shitholes they are longing to change Colorado into?

That is too bad. I think JCRS is now a shopping center. So now help there.

Is TB Making a Comback?

Excerpt...

Twenty-nine states and the District of Columbia also reported more active TB cases last year than in 2014, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported in March.

After two decades of steady decline, the number of active tuberculosis cases in the U.S. inched up last year. Hall’s was one of 9,563 TB cases reported last year, up from 9,406 cases the year before.

The CDC is still trying to determine the reason for the uptick.

(Could the reason be the influx of illegal immigrants and refugees into the US?)

It's a small price to pay to get good lettuce pickers. Oh, wait. These people don't pick lettuce or even need to get a job. They qualify for life for welfare. Never mind.

Is America a GREAT country, or what!!??
