Joe Biden and Democrats don’t care about the health of U.S. citizens. They keep frightening us about the dangers of the Delta variant of COVID-19. If they really cared, they would take immediate steps to shut down the border to illegal immigration. Period!
Thousands of illegal immigrants are pouring into the U.S. who are unvaccinated, unmasked and untested. Mexico is one of the biggest COVID-19 hotspots in the world and recently Mexican President Lopez Obrador announced that Mexico will not introduce a vaccine passport or require visitors to show proof of vaccination. “We will not require that type of proof whatsoever,” Obrador stated.
How are you supposed to control COVID-19 in the U.S. if you keep letting untested and unvaccinated illegal immigrants in? According to a news report from a few months ago, McAllen reported that federal authorities had processed more than 7,000 COVID-positive migrants in their city in just a couple of months, including more than 1,500 infected migrants in just one week alone. Imagine the total current numbers now in August! A recent report stated that 40% of illegal aliens being bused to Laredo, Texas had tested positive for COVID-19.
A local state of disaster has been declared. The increase of cases flooding local hospitals can be attributed to this obvious cause. To make matters worse, the CDC reported that vaccinated people who contract the COVID Delta variant can spread the virus just as easily as unvaccinated people and is recommending that vaccinated people mask up again. Yikes! Here we go again.
If the CDC will not mandate that unrestricted illegal immigration cease immediately to prevent more infections from entering, then I am no longer interested in anything they have to say. Sorry! Obviously, Biden/ Harris and the Democrats care more about potential new voters than containing COVID.
