The 20 diseases 'refugees' bring into the West
WND ^ | 07/21/2017 | Elizabeth Lee Vliet, M.D.

Since 2005, Americans have been warned about microscopic border crossers carried in with refugees and illegal immigrants, bringing diseases previously eradicated or rarely seen here. When not simply ignored by media and health officials, physicians and others sounding the alarm have been attacked as xenophobes.

Now we’re seeing these prescient predictions come true, most prominently in Germany, since 2015 when Angela Merkel began allowing more than 2 million migrants from Africa, Asia and the Middle East to flood into her country.

U.S. and German citizens are put at significant risk by the politically correct acceptance of unscreened immigrants from countries with a high prevalence of infectious diseases, many difficult or impossible to treat. Yet authorities in both countries have failed to fully inform the public of the dangers.

According to the July 2017 Infectious Disease Epidemiology Annual Report by the Robert Koch Institute in Berlin, Germany has seen a surge in chicken pox, cholera, dengue fever, tuberculosis, leprosy, measles, malaria, meningococcal diseases, hemorrhagic fevers, hepatitis, HIV/AIDS, paratyphoid, rubella, shigellosis, syphilis, typhus, toxoplasmosis, tularemia, trichinellosis, whooping cough, and many fungal and parasitic infections. Here are a few striking examples:

Measles is up more than 450 percent. Hepatitis B is up 300 percent. Scabies escalated nearly 3,000 percent. HIV/AIDS increased 30 percent. Tuberculosis (TB) is at least 30 percent higher – but German and U.S. physicians suspect that the incidence of TB is actually far higher than reported, and is being downplayed to avoid causing public outrage over the influx of immigrants. In Germany, more than 40 percent of TB cases are multi-drug resistant TB (MDR-TB).Dengue fever is up over 25 percent just from 2014.

A similar pattern has emerged in the U.S. since the massive increase in illegal border crossers and refugees beginning in 2010.

It is considered a sad and terrible truth of history that Europeans brought diseases with them to the New World that the natives did not have immunity against. Many native Americans died as a result. But somehow, turning a blind eye to the diseases that unvetted immigrants are bringing into the country is not a problem we need to care about.

I’d prefer off my planet and out of my universe, but I’d settle for placing allah them within a mile of the judges (and their families) that forbid them from being denied admission onto US soil.

It wouldn’t take too long for that part of the problem to self-correct.

It’s nothing a border-long trench filled with half spent control rods wouldn’t fix.

Leave a few tightly controlled corridors open for legitimate trade...the rest can pray to winged serpents AFAIC.

Probably for many years the Europeans did not know they were bringing such diseases. We now know exactly what diseases are coming across borders with immigrants.
