Developing Story: Public Health Crisis Looms as NYC Migrant Shelter Reports Measles Outbreak Amid Ongoing Border Issues Under President Biden’s Administration
Two instances of measles have been detected among inhabitants of a migrant shelter in New York City, according to city health officials. The city’s health department has reported 11 recorded cases of measles as at July 12 in the city, marking a significant increase from the solitary case reported last year in the entirety of the city.
The migrant shelter on Hall Street has been under increasing scrutiny from residents of Clinton Hill, who have reported a rise in litter, noise and vagrancy in the streets under the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway. The emergence of measles could serve to exacerbate these already present concerns, given the highly infectious nature of the disease.
This public health situation arises at a time when Biden’s administration is struggling to handle a steep incline in illegal immigrant border crossings. Astoundingly, the administration has shown no obstacles when it comes to entertaining an influx of illegal immigrants, many of which come unvaccinated and undocumented from underdeveloped nations. The ongoing influx heightens the potential for importing contagious illnesses to migrant shelters established in sanctuary cities.
Adding to the issue, the CDC has deployed resources in an effort to curb a separate measles outbreak in a migrant shelter located in Chicago. This is amidst the fact that American citizens have been obligated to receive Covid vaccinations in order to return to work or frequent restaurants, while an estimated 10+ million immigrants have entered the country without the necessary immunizations required for public safety.
The inability of the Biden administration to adequately fortify the border and implement immigration regulations is fast becoming a public health crisis. The recent measles outbreak acts as further proof of the potential risks associated with their lax approach to border control.
The epidemy serves as a sharp warning about the potential perils of unregulated illegal immigration, a topic that conservative voices have repeatedly raised alarms about. This recent outbreak underpins the dire need for robust border security and stringent enforcement of immigration policies.
Crucially, it is high time for the Biden administration to take urgent action to strengthen the border and safeguard the American populace from the potential threats that unchecked illegal immigration can bring.
