Six Diseases Return To US as Migration Advocates Celebrate ‘World Refugee Day’
Breitbart ^ | 06/19/2016 | Michael Patrick Leahy

Posted on 06/20/2016 11:23:30 AM PDT by Enlightened1

Six diseases that were recently near eradication are making a comeback in the United States, as the taxpayer funded refugee resettlement industry launches a propaganda blitz about the so-called World Refugee Day this Monday.

The returning diseases are;

1. Tuberculosis
2. Measles
3. Whooping Cough
4. Mumps
5. Scarlet Fever
6. Bubonic Plague

The near eradication of these diseases in the United States during the twentieth century was a remarkable accomplishment of American civilization. Until recently, most Americans believed these diseases were gone from our shores for good.

But a politicized public health system, and a rise in the subsidized migration into the United States, however, have combined to reverse a century of progress.

The number of foreign-born residents of the country has increased by 31 million in three decades, from 11 million in 1986 to 42 million in 2015. Immigration to the United States during this period has come from Middle Eastern, African, Asian, South American and Central American countries where all these diseases are prevalent. The extra 31 million have arrived in a number of ways: approximately 3 million are refugees, 11 million are illegal immigrants, and the remainder are legal immigrants, asylees, and parolees.

The US stopped doing health screenings because keeping people out “just because” they had AIDS was insensitive.

It wasn’t fair for us to have so few diseases.

Churchill was right. The world is headed into a new Dark Age.

Minor correction: Bubonic Plague was not eradicated from the US. It’s endemic in certain animal populations. With modern hygiene, infections have become rare, although they do still happen on occasion.

Person-to-person transmission was practically eliminated. That might be what’s picking up. But the disease itself has been here the whole time.

The new gods of the mindless left are Tolerance and Equality. The left cares not that this comes at the cost of sickness and death.

And, lest we forget, we have some of our own to thank for this as well. Jorge Busho and family, our RINO Congress, et al.

Not under Obama's transformation to reduce America.

Email this to every friend or relative who WHINES about how you don’t want dirty foreigners in the nation.

“Cause I don’t want you do DIE from this disease, that’s why!”

Measles, mumps and whooping cough is a result of lower vaccination rates in “crunchy” US populations. scarlet fever is from strep, which is endemic. If there is higher rates of scarlet fever it’s from low information parents not taking their kids in soon enough or not making sure all medicine is taken completely, not just until they feel better. And bubonic plague is endemic to rodent populations, particularly in the American west, there are always several cases a year because people stupidly forget that rodents are destructive, disease carrying vermin that need to be exterminated at every opportunity.

Only Tuberculosis can be laid at refugee/illegal immigration’s door.

I just started a job at medical center. I am nowhere near the patients, unless I pass them as I stroll to my workplace.

In order to complete my application I had to get more vaccines than my daughter had to get when she went to Haiti. As this is a hospital that focuses on the poor, everyone needs to make sure they don’t get what comes through to front door.

And there are plenty more to come along with unnamed diseases.

"6. Bubonic Plague"

That has nothing to do with people moving from one country to another so much with international business and politics. It has more to do with NIMBYs in western U.S. states pretending to be animal worshipers in hopes that their neighbors will be killed by diseases in animals.
