Nearly 200 immigrants are suffering from mumps at detention facilities across Texas, according to a state health agency. The Texas Department of State Health Services says 178 detainees had confirmed cases of mumps as of Feb. 21. Another five cases were reported among detention facility employees. Texas detention centers account for 76 percent of mumps cases at such facilities nationwide, according to federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention data.Lara Anton, a spokeswoman for the Department of State Health Services, said in an email that patients range in age from 13 to 66, and that “there has been no reported transmission to the community.”...“You don’t need to be in the facility to know the conditions in there are not quite sanitary and are not equipped to deal with disease,” Caracostis said. “These are contagious diseases; they thrive in places where there’s no proper sanitary management.”...“It tells me the isolation and quarantine efforts are not being done as diligently as it could be done,” Persse said.

The first isolation will have lawyers all over them and the msm will be triggered. How about they get put on the first transport bus headed south.

We should not even be detaining these people.
Throw them back across the order into Mexico.

Of course they do. But no worries! Taxpayers will cover all their medical costs.

There was a whooping cough epidemic several years back. I’ll guarantee it was because of illegals. It’s way past time we held our “leaders” accountable for what are essentially crimes against the people.

There is a vaccine for that. MMRV which protects against measles, mumps, rubella, and varicella (chickenpox). This vaccine is only licensed for use in children who are 12 months through 12 years of age. Before the U.S. mumps vaccination program started in 1967, mumps was a universal disease of childhood.

Gee. I wonder how this happened?

Unpossible. The liberals said they don’t bring in any diseases. Or crime.

This has been a problem for a long time. When we first started getting the news stories about unaccompanied minors, the holding facility in McAllen Tx had cases of measles, mumps, whooping cough, TB, widespread lice, and just a couple of weeks ago the story about a city hall in Wackifornia had a typhus outbreak and they had to pull the carpets.

All diseases wiped out in this country years ago. All being brought here once again by foreign invaders. All democrats supporting open borders should be rounded up and jailed for aiding and abetting criminals,. Just walking across the border without documentation is a criminal act. Helping them should be prosecuted. Those putting together these caravans should be prosecuted...

These unvaccinated people drag all sorts of illnesses into Texas schools throughout the school year. Many have not been taught to wash their hands, and teachers must stand at the door with hand sanitizer and make all children use it, so there is no subliminal discrimination against the ones who don’t wash. I know. I was a Texas teacher.

“Nearly 200 immigrants in Texas detention facilities have mumps”

Is it contagious? Send them to San Francisco.

The good news may be that mumps can cause sterility in males!

It’s not unthinkable to infect wetbacks with disease and let them cross on over or fly in for that matter. It’s called terror and the left cares less.

Won’t happen until we stop electing Bush League Republicans who are helping them aid and abet criminals.

These Senators need to be replaced with patriots in 2020

Gardner, McSally, Daines, Collins, Cornyn, Capito, Enzi, Rounds, Graham, Tillis, Sasse, Hyde-Smith, McConnell

If we want to keep our country.

It would be a shame if they all became sterile.

Think they got them Mumps from those un-vaccinated children outside the facility? 100% correlation between mumps, measles, whooping cough, etc. outbreaks and illegal immigration.

Excellent! Spread it to all detention facilities! The disease makes young men sterile.
