What Do You Think Illegal Immigrants Bring Diseases Into States ?
Question by Untied States Of Latina: What do you think Illegal immigrants bring diseases into States ?
As our nation slowly is overrun by illegal immigrants, we must realize there are not just societal and economic issues, but medical concerns as well.
It has become second nature for people to sit back and make justifications for allowing illegal immigration. However, unless they acknowledge the consequences they are not likely to understand its full implications.
Investor’s Business Daily reported on Aug. 29, that Francisco Santos, an illegal immigrant, was arrested at Gwinnett Medical Center on Aug. 24 when he refused treatment for an active case of contagious tuberculosis and threatened to leave the hospital and return to Mexico.
Santos will get his wish when Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents deport him back home to receive medical help there, instead of taxing our services.
Unfortunately, cases like Santos’ are not random occurrences. A tuberculosis outbreak involving 131 immigrants occurred at a South Carolina poultry plant just a few weeks ago.
According to webmd.com, tuberculosis is a highly contagious viral infection spread through air particles by an infected person when he or she sneezes, coughs or spits.
Frontpagemagazine.com reported Aug. 17, “It is estimated that each person infected with TB will infect 10 others.”
This is a huge biological threat to the citizens of the United States. New strains of tuberculosis that are resistant to drug treatment have developed, and research by the Indiana University of Medicine affirmed it was introduced into the United States by Mexican Nationals.

Tuberculosis is the main one. Let’s get that one spreading through the U.S. population. They also will bring other diseases but the antibiotic resistant strain they bring of TB is the worst. Imagine all the free medical we would have to provide the illegals…and when they infect the general population, we will have to take the money for treatment out of our savings or get a loan. Build the fence today.
