Marine Corps Gen. John Kelly, commander of the U.S. Southern Command, predicted last week that the Ebola virus will not be contained in West Africa, and if infected people flee those countries and spread the disease to Central and South America, it could cause “mass migration into the United States” of those seeking treatment.
“If it breaks out, it’s literally, ‘Katie bar the door,’ and there will be mass migration into the United States,” Kelly said in remarks to the National Defense University on Tuesday. “They will run away from Ebola, or if they suspect they are infected, they will try to get to the United States for treatment.
Kelly also spoke about the danger of transnational criminal networks smuggling people into the U.S. that could be infected with Ebola.
He spoke about his recent visit to the border of Costa Rica and Nicaragua with U.S. Embassy personnel where they saw men lined up waiting to enter Nicaragua.
“The embassy person walked over and asked who they were and they told him they were from Liberia and they had been on the road about a week,” Kelly continued. “They met up with the network in Trinidad, and now they were on their way to the United States -- illegally, of course.”
Kelly said the men could make it all the way to New York City within the incubation period for Ebola of 21 days.

Just as Barry and his handlers have planned.
We are literally effed.
If by “mass migration” he meant migration to Massachusetts, I’d have to ponder that a bit.
Ebola de Mexico PING!
Kelly will shortly resign. He is off the Reservation.
Illegal-aliens-carrying-Ebola PING
I just don’t know. I can’t imagine most African’s would have the money to make that happen. Most affected are very poor. Don’t many of them live in the ghetto’s of Liberia?
I’m sure the ones that can afford to come here will make an attempt.
I’m imagining the scene in WWZ with the zombie herd crawling over one another to scale walls.

Sounds like the nightmare predicted in this novel.

It’s time to spread a rumor of illegal immigrants contacting Ebola in Texas.
Yep.
I read that some of them stowaway on ships. A lot of them probably have friends and relatives that can send them money, just like the central Americans do here.
don’t worry... our big tactical move is to put our troops... on another freakin continent.
i wonder if people will finally find the stones to arrest/detain/depose this admin once people start dying in the US
I wonder who this General was directing the message to? This wasn’t an off-the-cuff remark. This was planned. With a target recipient.
Extremely interesting.
At first I thought this article was from CBS News. Not going to happen.
Leaving an ebola trail all the way through Mexico before infecting the US.
Will our border guards be dressed in hazmat suits?
