One of the many benefits of open borders!
Karl Hoffmann, a professor of parasitology at Aberystwyth University, writes in The Independent:
Not so long ago, human diseases caused by parasitic worms were thought to be confined to resource poor communities throughout Africa, Asia and South America. But in this age of global travel and changing climate, parasitic worms are slowly but surely moving into parts of Europe and North America. The long-term consequences of increased parasitic worm distributions are difficult to predict, but the harm that infection causes highlights the need for developing control strategies that can mitigate this 21st-century threat to global health.
[…]Schistosomiasis – which is caused by infection with blood dwelling schistosome flatworms – currently affects hundreds of millions of people every year, often leading to the deaths of thousands to hundreds of thousands of victims. Its impact is so great that some have claimed it is second only to malaria on the scale of devastating parasitic diseases.
Approximately 85 per cent of all human schistosomasis currently occurs in sub-Saharan Africa, but outbreaks have recently been reported on the Mediterranean island of Corsica. People become infected with the parasites when they come into contact with certain types of freshwater snail that produce human-infective stage schistosomes. These parasitic worms rapidly penetrate the skin and develop into adult male and female schistosomes within the blood vessels surrounding the intestines or bladder of infected individuals.

THE TIME MACHINE comes to mind.
Globalism. Alright. Globalists are using forced migration to change the governance of democratic nation states. This is done to install a governing body that is open to globalism and the end of the nation state.
Certain endoparasites actually influence the behavior of their hosts, helping to spread the contagion.
The "wandering disease" shown in the 1936 film "Things to Come" (H.G. Wells) comes to mind.
