The more one reads on the subject of illegal aliens the more one questions the sanity of the American people in general? American has become a 'sink hole' and will collapse from within ... wake up ... gaze into the mirror and ponder the question ... what does an a-hole look like?
Illegals leaving Arizona for sanctuary cities bring contagious diseases with them
As long ago as in 2005, Arizona hospitals and doctors were worrying about the resurgence of some serious infectious diseases being brought to the United States by illegal immigrants from Mexico. In 2010, if anything, it seems to be getting worse as illegals travel to sanctuary cities and the diseases spread among those populations.
This should worry sanctuary cities who may soon find an increase of diseases such as:
Diseases, such as tuberculosis (TB) is easily spread by coughing droplets so just standing in line next to a person afflicted with the disease who is coughing could mean becoming infected with the disease.
According to a 2009 report from the World Health Organization, in 2007 Mexico had 21,283 TB cases which translated into 20 cases per 100,000 people. The WHO also reported that 25% of the TB cases in the U.S. originated in Mexico.
Many restaurants, especially fast food types, employ illegals to work as cooks, dishwashers and food handlers. If the sanctuary cities do not have strict health codes requiring screening for these workers, many of the contagious and infectious diseases, especially Hepatitis A, B. and C can be spread very quickly among that city's population.
Especially at risk are children, who come in contact with immigrants who can pass on measles, mumps and rubella, and who have not be vaccinated against these and other diseases, such as whopping cough.
