“MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) The state health officer told members of a new state task force Wednesday that the rising number of Hispanic immigrants in Alabama are bringing with them additional cases of communicable diseases like tuberculosis and chicken pox.”
Paging Captain Obvious!!
I can’t believe we are just hearing about this now. In my practice I see illegals with chicken pox all the time. In people in their 20’s, which is very rare in US citizens. I know that when I see one case that the whole household will be coming to see me soon thereafter.
Also, Leprosy and bed bugs are making a comeback.
