Will Terrorists Bring Ebola Disease, Black Plague Across The U.S. Border ?
I'm not an alarmist, or someone who enjoys seeing folks getting all riled up over nothing but I have to tell you, the article I am sharing with you this week should... really raise everyone's senses to what is occurring to our nation and what could potentially become a very real disaster here. As we see the thousands of especially children and women come racing across our U.S. Border via Mexico from three nations, Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador, we see that a high percentage of them are disease ridden. There are reports of children and adults being infected with Chicken Pox, Measles, Scabies, Tuberculosis, as well as also being infested with lice http://www.abc15.com/news/national/immigrants-bringing-diseases-across-border. Now I'm not surprised at these reports. I have been on two short-term Christian Missionary trips to Guatemala in the late 1990's. I have seen how poor many are there, especially in the Quiche Region. We were warned by our host missionary hosts while in Guatemala to always, always wash our hands, do not touch our faces and as much as we wanted to hug the children there, do not do it because we could become infected with a disease and or get head lice.
What America is getting streaming across our U.S. Border to the South are human beings who are entering here with the impression that they can get a better life in America. Of course they don't care about being disease ridden or infecting Americans with the diseases they carry, that is not at all their concern. Their concern is to come to America and get what they believe will be “a better life” including “free food, housing,” etc. However, whether their belief system is right or wrong is insignificant in my opinion compared to the dangers these Illegal Immigrant children are facing here in the USA including being forced into sex/human trafficking, drug smuggling/selling and or gang activity. Not only a large risk to these children but equally and just as important is the real and documented danger these children and their family members are to the health of many Americans as well. As I mentioned earlier, there are many of these children that are disease ridden. Yes, most Americans are immunized against some of these diseases but with such diseases as Tuberculosis, the vast majority of Americans are at risk because there is no current effective immunization injection that can be given or ingested to prevent this highly contagious disease. Even if there were such an immunization against T.B., that would still leave many Americans with low resistance to viruses and diseases such as infants and the elderly at high risk anyway.
