Open Borders: Startling Feature of Coronavirus Epidemic



Open Borders: Startling Feature of Coronavirus EpidemicHere’s an oddity: the six states that have reported the most “cases” of Covid-19 are also the same that contain the greatest number of undocumented immigrants. There are two disturbing “coincidences” that percolate through the Covid-19 story: the surprising toxicity of both illegal immigration and Democrat governors. Comparing data from the Pew Research Center and worldometers.com, New York, California, Texas, Florida, New Jersey, and Illinois are the top six states in both the greatest number of Covid-19 cases reported as well as undocumented immigrants. Of course, “correlation is not cause,” but besides the sick elderly, minorities in America’s big cities and people with ill health are disproportionately dying of complications related to Covid-19. The policy of Open Borders apparently has another consequence in addition to depressing wages for Americans: a public health threat.

Ending illegal immigration has been the cornerstone of the Trump agenda

And here is the second telling fact: the top 10 states for the percentage of deaths per million from Covid-19 have one thing in common: Democrat governors. That’s why this is the most contentious medical “emergency” in American history, because of the obvious political ramifications of having allowed so many people with substandard health enter the country and the Democrats using Covid-19 to try and defeat President Trump in November. Ending illegal immigration has been the cornerstone of the Trump agenda and it has been fought by the Left, the courts, and the media at every turn. But the weaponization of Open Borders mostly by the Democrat Party but also by business interests, is changing the face of American society. The next four states and completing the top 10 for undocumented immigrants by state, according to Pew’s report in 2019 on 2016 data, are Georgia, North Carolina, Arizona, and Virginia. Interestingly, Georgia, Arizona, and Virginia have all reported more Covid-19 deaths per million than California, Texas and Florida. Perhaps because the latter three states are blessed with warm climates and less population density. But there is no denying that illegal immigration is affecting the national electoral map. In the top 10 states for undocumented immigration where 75 percent of all illegals live, California, New York, New Jersey, and Illinois are impregnable Democrat strongholds. The other six – Texas, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, Arizona, and Virginia – have turned those reliable conservative Red States into Purple ones. Here are the 10 states that have reported the most coronavirus deaths per million in 2020. They are in order of highest percentage to lowest: New Jersey, New York, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Louisiana, Michigan, Illinois, Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Delaware. Yes, they all have Democrat governors. Now there could be several reasons for this. Republican governors may be underreporting the number of Covid-19 deaths in their states or even because of geography, their states have not yet been hit fully. But the more likely scenario is that Democratic governors have gotten their administrations and “public health” officials to overestimate the number of coronavirus deaths to justify their tyrannical lockdowns. For example, many of these governors have required people to wear masks always even though the chance of healthy, asymptomatic people transmitting Covid-19 in brief interactions outside with others is infinitesimally small and unlikely. Wearing masks inside, however, may reduce transmission where people meet in close quarters for longer periods of time. Again, we are still talking about a virus from which young healthy people have almost no chance of dying.

Exaggeration and biased reporting of Covid-19 deaths has been long suspected

The most likely reasons that states led by Democrat governors lead in the percentage of coronavirus deaths per million is that they want to make the pandemic appear worse that it is, as have their policies, specifically sending Covid-19 patients to nursing homes, killing sick residents, as happened in New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Exaggeration and biased reporting of Covid-19 deaths has been long suspected. In fact, one state and city have admitted on the record that they goose the number of Covid-19 fatalities. In April, Illinois Public Health Director Dr. Ngozi Ezike said in a widely circulated video that people in that state are listed as coronavirus deaths even if they died of alternative causes. “Even if you died of a clear alternate cause but you had COVID at the same time, it’s still listed as a COVID death,” she said. Ezike also noted, for example, if a man in hospice was given only weeks to live and happened to catch Covid-19, he would be counted as a “COVID” death. People in hospice are already terminally ill; they do not “die” of Covid. They were already dying of something else. Also in April, New York City, which at that time was the world epicenter of the outbreak, health officials sharply increased its death toll on one particular day by more than 3,700 victims, after they said they were including people who had never tested positive for the virus but were presumed to have died of it. The only conclusion one can reach is that Democrat governors and their administrations routinely overestimate the number of deaths by Covid-19 for political reasons, including hospitals eager for coronavirus funding. Covid-19 is not a hoax; it is real. However, Americans can handle the virus by taking reasonable precautions based on our individual risk factors, utilizing common sense, eschewing fear, and facing the reality that Open Borders and Democrats are an existential threat to this country, far worse than Covid-19.
