Report: 84% of Chicago’s Measles Cases Traced to Venezuelan Migrants
Breitbart ^ | 17 May 2024 | WARNER TODD HUSTON

Posted on 05/17/2024 2:23:55 PM PDT by Mr. Mojo

A report from the Centers for Disease Control has linked 84 percent of Chicago’s recent cases of measles back to the wave of illegal aliens from Venezuela.

The report found that 84 percent of the identified cases were found in illegal aliens from Venezuela who were unvaccinated and can be traced to a single migrant boy who arrived in Chicago with the communicable disease, according to the Daily Mail.

Fifty-seven cases were found in the same migrant shelter in Chicago’s Pilsen neighborhood, the CDC added.

But Venezuela was not the only traced source of cases. The organization also noted that sixteen percent of the cases in Chicago could be traced back to people who contracted the disease in Peru and Chile.

After the migrant child was taken from the shelter to a hospital on February 27, Chicago health authorities acted to contain the illness. By May 13, the city identified 57 cases of measles among migrants living in the shelter.

Most of the migrants who came down with measles were from Venezuela. But authorities also found four patients from Peru, two from Ecuador, and one from Chile. A final case was found in a patient who would not reveal his place of origin. #0 of those sickened were women and 27 were men and patients ranged in age between six months to 49 years of age.

I believe it.

We are vaccinated, so it’s not a problem, no exposure.

Third world non vaccinated come in with it and spread it to the kids of the hippies who don’t believe in vaccination.

In other news, coincidentally, 84% of the new violent crimes are also attributed to the Venezuelans!

I have a soap box... With exceptions, the population is weak. My grandmother lived in an era where everything took hard work. They didn’t go to the store and buy everything already to use. They tilled the garden. They planted. They weeded. They picked. They canned. It took from spring till late fall.. 6 months.
Doing the laundry.. Took all day..they went to church. They had family gatherings. They had time to thank the Lord for all His blessings..
Today, everyone is busy. Not just busy.. BUSY!!
There was a time when treason if any kind, was treated as serious, and taken to task.
Things that used to be investigated. Today are put on the back burner or ignored. Millions have invaded our country.. The current administration are the reason, and congress sits on their duffs and does nothing. No one does anything to keep this country safe.. It’s listed in the constitution as treason.. To not protect the people. That would be only 1 charge among many.. All are being ignored.

Where is the fight?? Where are your limits?.
I’m asking because I don’t see any.

Michael Savage holds master’s degrees from the University of Hawaii in medical botany and in medical anthropology, and a Ph. D. from the University of California, Berkeley in nutritional ethnomedicine.

He has said many plagues were started by migrants entering a country. Allowing border crossers without any medical tests is an open invitation to disaster.

Sick people at Ellis Island were turned away.

This is just a preview of things to come...Bet the rent.

Is this at least 84% and the remainder we can’t determine?

Quick, Fateful Exams
New arrivals were processed quickly. In the Registry Room, Public Health Service doctors looked to see if any of them wheezed, coughed, shuffled or limped. Children were asked their names to make sure they weren’t deaf or dumb. Toddlers were taken from their mothers’ arms and made to walk. As the line moved forward, doctors had only a few seconds to check each immigrant for sixty symptoms of disease. Of primary concern were cholera, favus (scalp and nail fungus), tuberculosis, insanity, epilepsy, and mental impairments. The disease most feared was trachoma, a highly contagious eye infection that could lead to blindness and death.

.........................

Other detainees included stowaways, alien seamen, anarchists, Bolsheviks, criminals and those judged to be “immoral.” Approximately 20 percent of immigrants inspected at Ellis Island were temporarily detained, half for health reasons and half for legal reasons.

The old system worked pretty good.

It’s interesting to me than no women or girls had measles. Only men and boys.

My assumption is that with limited funds for vaccines that the Venezuelan Public Health are only vaccinating females to prevent birth defects when they reach childbearing age and the inevitable outbreaks occur due to low vaccination rates.
