[Beowulf9]

But these are of pregnant mothers likely having syphilis and having to be tested. Are you supposing the number of pregnant mothers in NM with syphilis is mostly women from across the border? Or given syphilis from men who had it that are all illegals?

[Bernard]

Not knowing how anybody can determine the relative risk of syphilis in one group compared to another, I can't answer your question. The excerpt talked about testing all pregnant women multiple times.

My comment was in two parts; one about reducing the risk of disease in this country, and the other about allowing many of those diseases to flourish again through uncontrolled borders. If the 2 parts are related, they would be compounding factors. Each one separately is a disaster.
