It seems like this warning from the CDC shouldn’t be necessary yet the agency issued an alert to medical professionals to be on the lookout for Afghan refugees with infectious disease symptoms. A few cases of infectious diseases for which most Americans are vaccinated have started popping up among the Afghan evacuees recently brought into the United States.
The CDC posted an announcement on its website warning medical professionals and staff of the possibility of Afghan refugees bringing infectious diseases like measles, mumps, and rubella into the country during their evacuation. Most Americans have been vaccinated against all those diseases.

Polio has been eliminated from the face of the Earth, except for one place: Afghanistan.

The hell you say.
Import a bunch of fifth-world barbarians, and you get things that were previously eradicated across the civilized world. This crowd not only brings their disease, but their rape sticks as well.

Yeah, and every other illegal alien now entering the country by the hundreds of thousands, unopposed and unchecked by the current criminal junta.

No kidding CDC. Concern about the Afghans? What about the millions of illegals crossing through our porous Southern Border? What about their infections? Surrender Joe's minions have no clue where they are or what diseases they carry. Nor do they care.

I'm not the director of the CDC, neither have I played one on TV nor slept at the Holiday Inn last night, and even I had an inkling that 7th century barbarians might be riddled with 7th century diseases, let alone our modern day plague of the week. You know, it almost seems like the Democrats want to destroy our country on purpose. /extreme sarcasm

Who the heck is running our country?
Is it a bunch of fake "elites" plus a bunch of kids in the White House?
Because they are running it right into the ground.

They are not "refugees," they are people the Taliban was willing to send to the United States for whatever reason. We left the Afghans who required rescue in Afghanistan.

FTA: '....measles, mumps, and rubella into the country during their evacuation. Most Americans have been vaccinated against all those diseases.' Neat! A good way to take out the previous-era vax-sceptics; i.e. those with religious and other objections to standard childhood vaccines. Plus, coincidentally---NOT!---another fear alert to herd more anti-vaxers into the boxcars.

Oh, the CDC waited until AFTER Thousands of Afghans AND HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of Haitians were ALLOWED to SPREAD all over our Country, THEN the CDC announces they could be bringing infectious diseases to all of us? WOW! Unbelievable!

Why tell the CDC? What are they going to do but print another zillion copies in the Pashto and Dari languages? Generally speaking, disease carriers wouldn't read a book published by the ''great satan'' anyway. Oh wait! Nasty Piglosi could add a few printings to US currency so the unwashed, illiterati can join the Great Pretense. Send THAT to their cell phones!

It isn't enough that the Biden administration and Democrats are spreading Covid-19 via illegal invaders from our southern boarder. Now they are importing Covid-19 and other deadly diseases via Afghan refugees. Neither group is being asked or checked for diseases before being released into the general population.
Talk about super-spreader events on steroids! All brought to you by Biden and the Democrats.

You bring in 100,000 or so untested refugees that not only bring in covid they also bring in hepatitis A, leishmaniasis, mumps, rubella, varicella, malaria, measles, shigellosis, giardiasis, cryptosporidiosis, rotavirus, viral diarrheal diseases and tuberculosis and they may spread infectious diseases?
That is some powerful deductive logic the CDC has going on.

Statistically the antibiotic resistant TB is far deadlier than China virus and none of the illegal aliens from Columbia, Afghans and Haitians are being screen? And it spreads fast and kills slowly. Maybe that is China's intent?

It wouldn't bother biden at all since he's using the invaders from the southern border as bioweapons. He sends infected people all over the USA with no testing etc knowing there will be some infected with covid. What else would someone call it. The worse part, he's getting away with killing Americans or making them ill.

Thank goodness the CDC has informed me of this disaster. I would have never figured out that Neolithic savages would be carrying infectious diseases that homo sapiens had eliminated decades ago. My thanks to the CDC for providing such earth shattering information.

Why isn’t the FBI or DoJ warning state and local police about the increased sexual assault risk from male Afghan refugees? See Sweden for details on its horrible experience with Afghan rape-a-gees.

How better to kill what's left of our economy (along with thousands of lives) than to keep the virus active long enough for a total collapse? We knowthis isn't stupidity, dereliction, nor an accident; this is the PLAN.

As a San Diego resident during childhood it was well know the prevalence of TB in our southern neighbors and how important it was for us to be up to date with our inoculations, visa applicants were tested for tb.no harm no foul because just like the explorers and small pox which had already worked its way through Europe the native Americans had zero immune protection to an unknown virus. Fast forward to today where Mr Resident does not even health screen foreign individuals but gives them a folder and a free airplane ticket to anywhere they want to go. They take their shopping bag of food and goodies into the airport and fly off promising they will report to DAS office in their local to report. If these individuals truly are running from their governments what makes one think they’ll trust ours? It’s abuse to the immigrant and premeditated harm to the American populace. Baby Huey done goofed this up bad.

Re: #8 - Yes, planned nation-killing describes it well and the left among us planned on facing no meaningful pushback from traditional Americans on the so-called right. I hate it when we make them look prescient.

"CDC alert to medical professionals: Afghan refugees may spread infectious diseases"
Figured that out all by themselves, did they? What idiots.
What about the diseases being brought in by the other swarms coming across the river? (I can't call it a border anymore - "border" implies a separation & I don't see one much anymore)

The only good news in all this horror is that when I traveled to south central Asia on business, I got a wide number of 'oddball' vaccinations. I suppose I am mostly protected from these third world superspreaders.
Most Americans never had any need for these vaccinations.....and in those days, they were REAL vaccinations, which actually protected you from the disease.

If the next president does not promise to deport all of these people and close the borders tightly, he will not be the next president. Zero immigration for ten years, then we'll talk about it. This is a serious invasion that puts the country in danger every day.
