I worry it will enter the US via Mexico. There is a large Muslim community in Chiapas state, Mexico. It’s easy to imagine an outbreak occurring there since water treatment isn’t quite what it is here in the US. Illegal immigrants, those poor, poor darlings, will bring eventually bring it across the border. Our water treatment facilities are good but public swimming pools are another matter.
Of course, this new outbreak started in Nigeria when imams decided the vaccine was a covert attempt to sterilize the women. The Nigerian strain was carried from Nigeria to Pakistan and Afghanistan and on from there. Hajj is the largest threat since there are so many people in one place sharing the same water source and hopefully adequate sewage processing.
According to gov.uk, ‘Around 270,000 British nationals visit Pakistan every year. Most visits are trouble-free.’
That’s an almost surreal redefinition of ‘trouble.’ But maybe a sudden influx of polio will bring the number down.
First TB reemerged as a threat to the west, now polio is returning, which other old plague will start killing us as we descend into chaos?
When is the earth gonna open and swallow up Pakistani & Pakistani Mohammedans everywhere!
