The Big Apple is a sanctuary city for illegal aliens, who sometimes carry diseases, but not for Americans who don’t want to be vaccinated against them. As a case in point, Bolshevik Bill (a.k.a. Mayor De Blasio) just ordered that all adults and children older than six months in Brooklyn’s Williamsburg section be vaccinated against measles — or else.
The move is designed to combat an outbreak in which close to 300 people have contracted the disease since September. Under the order, unvaccinated people “who live or work within zip codes 11205, 11206, 11221 and 11249 will be required to get an MMR vaccine,” reports WCBS radio.
Legally, the city can’t force people to get vaccinated — but it can, Brooklyn-style, make you an offer you can’t refuse: People resisting the dictate could be fined $1,000.
Of particular focus currently are Brooklyn’s Yeshiva schools, which are allowing unvaccinated children to attend. “Since the measles outbreak began in October, the Department of Health says there have been 285 reported cases in Brooklyn’s Orthodox Jewish community, 246 of which are children,” reports CBSNewYork. “And so far, 21 people have been hospitalized.”
This reflects how there has been some resistance to vaccination among the area’s Orthodox Jews, stoked, say city officials, by “false information” spread in their community.
De Basio’s move follows an order in the NYC suburb of Rockland County banning all people under age 18 not vaccinated against measles from public places. As of March 27, the county had confirmed 153 cases of the disease — also mainly among the area’s Orthodox community.
The measles had been effectively eradicated in the United States by the year 2000, meaning that there were no epidemics; given this, it follows that the latest outbreaks likely manifested via the agent causing the disease, the rubeola virus, being reintroduced into our country.
Note here that the disease is spread only by humans. The virus lives in the mucus of the nose and throat of an infected individual; it is transmitted via coughing or sneezing and, being highly contagious, can survive in infected airspace for up to two hours.
In the case of Rockland County, officials say the measles was spread by a resident who contracted the disease while visiting Israel. Since Americans have a right and often a need to travel, this would mean that particular introduction of the disease was likely unavoidable. This cannot be said about all outbreaks, however.
For example, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) reported in 2013 that a small-scale introduction of the disease was caused by two infected adopted children from China, and a 2016 outbreak in Arizona had been traced back to an illegal alien at a detention center.
This brings us to what immigrationist authorities don’t want to admit. Our immigration law states that newcomers must be screened for diseases precisely because foreigners sometimes carry them. This goes double for illegal migrants, who generally hail from poor, disease-rampant Third World nations. Yet because they’re unscreened, they often become vectors of disease.
Measles is the least of it, too. In fact, the “CDC specifically cites the possibility of the cross-border movement of HIV, measles, pertussis, rubella, rabies, hepatitis A, influenza, tuberculosis, shigellosis and syphilis,” reported Dr. Walter E. Williams last year. “Chris Cabrera, a Border Patrol agent in South Texas, warned: ‘What’s coming over into the U.S. could harm everyone. We are starting to see scabies, chickenpox, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus infections and different viruses.’”
“Some of the youngsters illegally entering our country are known to be carrying lice and suffering from various illnesses,” Williams continued. “Because there have been no medical examinations of undocumented immigrants, we have no idea how many are carrying infectious diseases that might endanger American children when these immigrants enter schools across our nation.”
Yet it gets worse still. The late Dr. Madeline Cosman, a medical lawyer and City College of New York professor, warned in 2005 that illegal aliens had already brought “horrendous” diseases into the United States, “such as tuberculosis … Chagas Disease, leprosy, [and] malaria.”
Then there was the sudden 2018 rise in a frightening polio-like illness called acute flaccid myelitis. Many doctors say that Enterovirus D68 (EV-D68) — likely brought to our shores by illegals — is the cause.
This is why I asked in an article title last year “Will Migrant Caravan Kill Your Child — With Disease?” In it I quoted 2014 remarks by radio host Michael Savage, who, among his many credentials, boasts a Ph.D. in epidemiology and authorship of almost 20 books on health and nutrition. Placing the blame for our newly introduced diseases squarely on our immigrationists, he lamented that this “population in America, which once enjoyed the greatest health on Earth, is now being devolved into a second-world nation in terms of health because Obama is so corrupt, was so ignorant, was so evil,” reported WND.com.
“Instead of stopping disease spread, they’re [health officials and doctors] encouraging it by not speaking out against bringing in infected children and putting them in our public schools, right?” Savage continued. “What do you expect to happen if you put a kid with a certain virus into a school where they’ve never been exposed to that virus? It’s called an epidemic breakout.”
Savage has called this “a form of medical genocide.”
If you’re wondering why you haven’t heard more about this, consider how Fox News reported in 2014 on shocking allegations that a government-contracted security force was threatening to arrest medical personnel at Lackland Air Force Base in San Antonio, Texas, if they revealed information about the rampant disease among the facility’s illegal migrants. Because, you see, what you don’t know won’t hurt the powers-that-be (it may kill you, though).
Why the coverup? Well, consider how the establishment powers-that-be can stay the powers-that-be: by cementing power. Since the vast majority of Third World people vote for leftists upon naturalization, the Democrats want to import as many future voters as possible.
This is justified by ideology, too. The immigrationist, internationalist mindset sees us all as mere “citizens of the world”; thus, just as we don’t worry about possibly sick Americans crossing state borders, they don’t worry about possibly ill earthlings crossing those “obsolete social constructs” called national borders.
So just as globalists don’t trouble over redistributing Western wealth and driving Americans into poverty, they may not trouble over redistributing disease and driving some Americans into their graves.
