Today is federal holiday, so the private sector will be working without banking and mail.
Meanwhile states and sanctuary cities blame their illegal alien overpopulation problem on Abbott, totally disregarding the many thousands more that being trafficked at the hands of the Biden administration.
In a similar vein, the reaction to the Wuhan Lung Rot distracts from the real disease problem accompanying those unvetted, unexamined, and unvaccinated individuals.

The truth is we don’t even need a guy like McGinn to tell us we are unprotected from infectious diseases migrating to America. Common sense alone would tell you our ability to screen at the border is poor. The number of illegals crossing is too many. The border is understaffed. Congress isn’t funding the border effectively. The screening we are doing is mostly by self-report. Much of the potential disease is likely asymptomatic at the time of crossing. Busloads and planeloads of people are appearing in cities all over America. It is no wonder there have been spikes in TB and Measles in major urban areas.

In addition, McGinn told UncoverDC that the screening and vaccination requirements are inconsistent. He also claims that “DHS has no protocols in place to randomly sample all a portion of all persons coming across the border for all the potential diseases that these persons might have. They are placed in a vector-rich environment with poor circulation and ten times too many people inside at many of these detention centers, with plastic drapes that trap viruses. These same people are being immediately put on buses and airplanes to further increase the spread of disease before being dropped off in most towns and major urban centers across our country. There is no effort to inform counties or cities what are the health challenges they are facing, and no requirement, like are required of Green Card applicants who are living in the same areas across the country as are the 10’s of millions coming into our country across our southern border.
DHS isn’t even trying to protect its own employees, says McGinn:
“While neglecting their own employees and U.S. citizens’ health, OHS Acting CMO Wolfe takes great pride in receiving an award for vaccinating employees who were required to be vaccinated with a vaccine that in time will be shown to create a grossly unacceptable number of adverse reactions. DHS could have easily collected the health data instead of seeking awards. And, instead of health security, there is a neglect of voluntary record gathering across all DHS components. For example, DHS should attend to] the reporting of cases, monitoring impact and risk of exposure, effective oversight of its resources and training of DHS employees, conducting traceouts and follow adverse vaccine reactions (for COVID), monitor stress, implement sleep deprivation recommendations studied by our government to the tune of millions in taxpayer dollars, investigate disease clusters. The DHS should demonstrate the ability to do what most physicians are educated and experienced in managing: disaster medicine, epidemiology and infectious diseases. Most would likely agree the DHS Office of Health Security should rightly be labeled the Gold Medal Office of Health Insecurity.”

What diseases are we talking about? The Department of Health and Human Services
identifies many of them. In 2020, their focus was on “Tuberculosis, HIV/AIDS, gonorrhea, congenital syphilis, hepatitis A and B, and bacterial enteric diseases (e.g., listeriosis, non-typhoid Salmonellosis, vibriosis).”
Measles outbreaks continue to widen, according to
ABC7NY. The CDC states on the same website there is a need to “monitor, control, and prevent the occurrence and spread of about 120 health conditions.”

TB is airborne – just standing next to someone could transfer the germ. I caught TB in the fourth grade from one of my Dad’s buddies. Fortunately my immune system was strong enough to fight it off.

Immigrants who lawfully apply for a visa must undergo health screenings and show they are vaccinated, and refugees are screened for TB before entering the U.S. Not so for those wading across the Rio Grande. Nationwide, 6,009 of the 8,300 people with TB in 2022 were foreign-born, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Florida was slammed with a 21% increase in TB since 2020. Texas border counties have a TB rate triple the national average.

Yes, Joe – you did that.
