At least 6% of Migrants Crossing Texas Border Test Positive for Coronavirus

  • By Ely Marquez
  • (General Dispatch) – Following statements offered by city officials in Brownsville, Texas, at least 6% of released migrants are testing positive for COVID-19.
  • Despite efforts to conduct the relevant rapid tests at the border city’s bus stations, the movement of illegal migrants to the rest of the country is becoming an uncontrollable factor. 
  • Let us recall that this decision to allow migrants access to the country was announced by President Joe Biden during one of his speeches.
  • For this reason, the spread of the virus throughout the national territory is being fueled, without the authorities being able to control it carefully.
  • Criticism against the measure was not long in coming, so different governors raised their voices to express their dissatisfaction.
  • A total of 108 migrants were released, who tested positive for COVID-19.
  • It should be noted that migrants continue to transit the Texas border without any corrective measures being applied to mitigate the virus.
  • It has been demonstrated that the circulation of foreigners in various cities of the nation provides the necessary conditions for a new outbreak of the virus to reproduce in the population.

  1. I know the article states “at least 6%”, but, like illegal immigration numbers, the true number is much higher. It has to be. The illegal border crossers don’t have access to proper testing or health facilities. They are often packed like sardines for long distances to transport them across the border. There is no doctor to supervise or quarantine any infected individuals, COVID and any other communicable diseases spread like wildfire. We could be looking at a whole new pandemic thanks to Biden’s immigration policies.
