Most high school students would recognize this as a walking petri dish.

If they were not contagious before the march they probably are after a few weeks of questionable food prep, living conditions and hygiene standards (to say nothing of intentional weaponized exposure).

Given the obvious political element, one wonders what specific steps our government has taken in this regard, including adequate testing and perhaps a quarantine period, prior to releasing them OR to wander the U.S.?

TB, Scabies, Lice, Rubella, Whooping Cough, Meningitis, Mumps. Gastrointestinal and Respiratory Viruses, Polio, HIV, Hep B and C, Intestinal Parasites, Child Trafficking, Sexual Violence and STDs to name a few others...

Things we’ve long controlled or even essentially eradicated in our population are being re-introduced...

But why worry?

So quaintly old fashioned of us to expect Ellis Island style screening and wait for documents and all that legal stuff. Just push against the southern border fence and get into the land of welfare and Medicaid. The good old USA.

Could???..part of the plan, change the people in this country because they could not change the way we vote and then kill us off. Then they have a permanent voter base. Power for decades.

I have to applaud Michael Savage who wrote and spoke about this decades ago as a holder of a doctorate in epidemiological biology.

Astounding dangers of new polio style disease, TB,various types of plagues and antibiotic resistant STD, among other things, that come in with aliens.

That in itself is justification for stopping Dems firmly. They are evil. Imagine all that suffering and illness Dems and their illegals are bringing to Americans.
Show the Dems no mercy.

No kidding, they’re not even here yet but they’re already caused a fraction of the American population to insert their heads into their asses.

“Things we’ve long controlled or even essentially eradicated in our population are being re-introduced...”

Well, at least we can celebrate diversity.

In fact, plagues are a small price to play when diversity is our strength, along with another chance to prove we are not racist.

Columbus and the Spaniards gave the Indians smallpox, and the Indians gave the Spaniards syphilis in return. Smallpox is gone, but syphilis is still with us.

For many years of this migrant invasion of the US, the supposedly protective US health body, known as the CDC, has not uttered a peep. It is the biggest disgrace in the country. Why are they still funded?

Well, duuuuh. That is why she gets the big bucks.

Just in time for the flu season and people’s immune systems are already compromised and school kids are more confined in the classroom.

This is clearly a Captain Obvious moment.

Don’t you hate being right even when it causes pain?
