(Zero Hedge)—Health officials are on high alert after a case of tuberculosis was reported in Charleroi, Pennsylvania, a small town thrust into the spotlight by President-elect Donald Trump during a rally in September. Trump highlighted a staggering 2,000% increase in Haitian migrants in the town in just a few short years, many of whom were funneled into local factories like cattle. The TB case has heightened fears of a potential outbreak.
The Charleroi Area School District superintendent notified parents on Monday morning about a teen recovering from TB who returned to class without clearance from doctors.
“I am writing to provide an update regarding a recent health matter involving one of our high school students. The student, who attended school today, was diagnosed with tuberculosis a couple of weeks ago. Upon learning that the student had returned without a doctor’s clearance to return to school, we immediately isolated the student and sent them home,” Superintendent Dr. Edward Zelich wrote in the letter. read more
Yet ANOTHER difference between the massive influx of capable, self-sufficient folks who came to this country in the late 1800s/early 1900s. If you were sick when you arrived, you went into quarantine until you got better or died. THAT is how you protect a nation. But then DESTROYING the nation has been Mr. Potatohead Joe’s goal since he was VICE PRESIDENT (ok, maybe Senator).
Mr. L you are right. My grandmother told us of the rigors she went through when passing through Ellis Island
If we’ve learned anything from the past half century, it is that massive government social welfare bureaucracies targeting the able bodied but poorly adapted to current economic conditions is a societal cancer.
What was originally justified in The Great Society program as “temporary” assistance to “the poor” almost immediately morphed into a massive political patronage system for the lazy or the stupid. And US blacks became the virtual “nobility” of this preposterous upside elitism of historical victim status.
No, western countries have a population crises among its most productive classes of people because they’re being worked into the ground and exploited so the most useless classes of people, especially the dumbest and most criminal of people can reproduce like rabbits and spread their garbage culture everywhere while Western civilization dies on the vine. All because of the greed of bureaucrats.
Import the third world, become the third world
I am conflicted about this. I live in Canada and most Haitian immigrants (legal or otherwise) go to Quebec because they speak a form of French. My understanding is that once there, the majority DO become good citizens, their children go to school and they work in most of the jobs which the “laine pure” (Quebecois) do not want to do.
Yes Haiti is a the definition of a third world country, but when the people do get out and move into a good community they become good citizens.
I still want only legal immigrants and a small number of refugees. If you come to Canada or the United States illegally, then you are already a criminal. Both sets of my grandparents (Scottish, Irish) immmigrated to Canada in the early 20th century legally.

Learn English “Dr.” Zelich (guessing it’s the same kind of “Dr.” as “Dr.” Jill).
