Undocumented Immigrants bringing diseases across border

"We are sending people everywhere. The average person doesn't know what's going on down here," said Border Patrol agent and Rio Grande Valley Union representative Chris Cabrera.

Cabrera says agents are seeing illegal immigrants come over with contagious infections.

Detention centers and holding facilities have quarantined areas for those who come in sick. But Cabrera says the sick and healthy are separated only by caution tape.

"There's been an outbreak of scabies that's been going on for the past month," Cabrera said.

Texas border resident Jorge Garcia says word about the contagious skin infection is getting around.

"Our Border Patrol agents check on us all the time and they told us about the outbreak of scabies," Garcia said.

Cabrera says the sickness doesn't stop at scabies.

"We are starting to see chicken pox, MRSA staph infections, we are starting to see different viruses," Cabrera said.

Garcia believes the viruses are not confined to the detention center. Not long ago, a group of border-crossers came knocking on his door.

"It was a 7-month-old baby. It was shaking, it had a fever," Garcia said.

The Department of Homeland Security called in Coast Guard medics to help treat those who are sick. But Cabrera doesn't believe the federal government is doing enough. He says other Border Patrol agents have contracted scabies and he fears it will spread quickly.

"It's contagious, we are transporting people to different parts of the state and different parts of the country," Cabrera said.

they need to leave them in the country where they contracted the disease. deal with it there at ground zero. not bring it here and give it a chance to outbreak.

Dr. Lee Vliet said that several very sick individuals caught at the Texas border were transported to an undisclosed location, "all in respiratory distress, high fever, shaking, chills, and coughing up blood. Two weeks later, NBC news broke the story that several very sick individuals were flown to Ventura Air Force Base. These individuals were so sick, they were taken to an intensive care unit with the same symptoms." Dr. Vliet considered this incident significant because these could be symptoms of Ebola, dengue fever, and hemorrhagic fever. They are not symptoms of early phase tuberculosis. Medical personnel are forced to suppress medical information, keeping the public in the dark.

The Inspector General for DHS released a report on July 31, 2014 in which he documented the spread of viral illnesses, previously eradicated and controlled, among the Border Patrol agents and their families. Dispersing these illegal aliens with unknown infections into the general population was a bad idea.

The "unclassified report" leaked to Breitbart Texas showed that 250 individuals from Pakistan, numerous Egyptians, Yemenis, Somalis, known sponsors of terrorism, and 3,200 people from China were caught sneaking across the border, " a totally different pattern of previous illegal border crossings." Dr. Vliet mentioned 89 cases last week of illegal aliens with TB at the border in Texas.

She believed that bringing in two patients infected with Ebola into the U.S. was a great risk to the patients and to the public. The safe transportation in hazmat suits and the special flight came at great expense, millions and millions of dollars when they could have been treated on site with the portable decontamination units, without risking the lives of the flight crews, the patients themselves, and the American public.

"We don't know with certainty how Ebola is transmitted. There are studies from Canada that suggest that there is the possibility of aerosol (airborne) transmission." She continued that medical personnel in protected hazmat suits, including a doctor, have died of Ebola. Lung fluids and other bodily excretions are highly contagious.

There is a stark disconnect between the government's preparation to contain potential Ebola, going on around the country quietly, such as quarantine locations, requisitions for bio hazmat suits for the National Guard, and what people are being told publicly, not to worry about the spread of Ebola.

Other folks are making the same observations I expressed earlier in this thread...

Disconnect: National Preparedness for Potential Ebola Outbreak and What the Public is Told

By Dr. Ileana Johnson Paugh

Michael Snyder asked the obvious question, "How in the world is it possible that more than 170 health workers have been infected by the Ebola virus?" The World Health Organization (WHO) does not seem to have the answer even though health workers are dressed "head to toe in suits that are specifically designed to prevent the spread of the virus."

The WHO released the information that West Africa has tallied 1,711 Ebola diagnoses and 932 deaths. Ken Isaacs of the Samaritan's Purse said, "We believe that these numbers represent just 25 to 50 percent of what is happening." CDC Director Dr. Tom Frieden has estimated that the total number of those killed or infected in this outbreak is higher than all the other outbreaks in the last 32 years."

Isaacs stated that the "disease is uncontained and out of control" in three of the "poorest nations in the world," Liberia, Guinea, and Sierra Leone. He continued, "Is the world willing to let the public health of the world be in their hands?"
Since international air travel has not been suspended to, from, or via the affected countries (the countries have not been quarantined because it would negatively affect their poor economies), the virus was brought on uninfected U.S. soil by way of two contaminated Americans at Emory Hospital in Atlanta, and since our borders are wide-open, the possibility that one small mistake can trigger an outbreak in the U.S. is real.

Dr. Elizabeth Lee Vliet, described her concern about the "uncontrolled border crisis creating dangers of disease epidemics, including the potential of Ebola." According to a leaked intelligence report from the Border and Customs Protection, individuals from 75 different countries have crossed through the southern border illegally. This unclassified report with "sensitive data" indicated that "71 individuals from the three nations affected by the current Ebola outbreak either turned themselves in or have been caught attempting to illegally enter the U.S. between January and July 2014." The Border Patrol is detaining only 3-5 percent of the border crossers. She continued, "The odds are very good that Ebola could have already come across the border. No one knows for sure because information is being suppressed."

Notice how the drones always attack the person, never address the topics?

i did multiple times, you just live in your own closed off world and refuse to acknowledge any thing remotely connected to reality

Notice how the drones always attack the person, never address the topics?

never have i worshiped that man, nor will i ever worship any man(or non-man for that matter) its a silly concept that contradicts the ideology of freedom.

As a obama Worshipping nutcase, you'd need twice as much sense to be a halfwit.

lol had to call in the troll brigade to make yourselves seem stronger then what you really are. lol

Liberalism is a cult. I already told you that. Did you think I was just being a wiseguy? Libs->Brainwashed Cult Members. All cults give their members freebies and demonize their critics. ALL CULTS.

I observe a number of inconsistencies.

lol, like you're a scientist, and not another tin foil militia member living in his mothers basement.

I observe a number of inconsistencies.

"Official" reports are trying to equate the ebola virus on a par with HIV/AIDS, (i.e., close personal contact, bodily fluids, etc.) To quell panic among the publc.

Yet, health professionals, taking all the level 4 precautions, are dying of ebola despite.

If they truly believe their PR ads, why must they resort to isolation tents, hazmat suits, etc? Witness the 2 patients flown to Emory hospital. Why the sudden creation of "quarantine camps" (erstwhile FEMA camps) in the Untied States? Rushed executive orders granting involuntary detention of "suspected" patients?

Hmmmmmm......

Any rational person would conclude that they don't really have a handle on this disease. And, it may be mutating into a more virulent strain.>>> airborne.

Also interesting, is the political spin put on this discussion. Those who constantly defend all actions of government, once again declare "move along folks, nothing to see here".

The truth is in plain sight if one just opens their eyes.

How in the world is it possible that more than 170 health workers have been infected by the Ebola virus?That is the one question about Ebola that nobody can seem to answer. The World Health Organization is reporting this as a fact, but no explanation is given as to why this is happening. We are just assured that Ebola "is not airborne" and that getting infected "requires close contact with the bodily fluids of an infected person". If this is true, then how have more than 170 health workers caught the disease? These workers are dressed head to toe in suits that are specifically designed to prevent the spread of the virus. So how is this happening?

the flu IS an airborne transmitted virus, it infects MILLIONS. the Ebola is airborne when its hosted in certain species of animals, but not confirmed in human hosts. STDs are not transmitted by air yet there are millions of infections. the fact that the Ebola victims are so low might be based on its transmission medium.

There was an explanation given from experts being interviewed on the Diane Rheam show Monday morning. You choose not to listen to or seek any explanations that don't fit your conspiracy theories.

Ebola help spread by none other than Samaritan's Purse.

Feel Burger literally laughed out loud.
