We Are A Nation Of Migrants: CDC Says Tuberculosis Cases Spiked Since 2022

Red State reports: "CDC: Tuberculosis Cases Spiking in USA Since 2022. What Else Has Spiked in America Since Then?" From the article:

    ... The spike wasn't tremendous, but given the nature of tuberculosis and its transmissibility, it's a matter of serious concern.

    While it's important to note that correlation does not equal causation, there is nevertheless another phenomenon in the United States that has increased since 2022, indeed since January of 2021: Illegal immigration. The CDC is silent on the sources of the new infections, but it's not a great stretch of imagination that among millions of immigrants, many from third-world countries, some will be carrying pathogens.

    ... The World Health Organization releases, annually, a review of global TB cases, and it's    revealing. The top five nations for tuberculosis cases listed in the most recent report are Cambodia, Sierra Leone, Bangladesh, North Korea, and Pakistan, with Russia and China coming in at the top ten.

    Interestingly, no Latin American countries come in on the list of nations of greatest concern. But U.S. Customs and Border Protection informs us that the fastest-growing group of illegal border crossers is Chinese nationals.
