At
taxpayer funded Ellis Island persons seeking entrance to the US as
immigrants were checked for communicable diseases which could prevent
their entry to the US.

1/1/19, “Border authorities are referring 50 people a day for urgent medical care, including tuberculosis, flu and even pregnant women about to give birth, a top official said Monday, saying it’s unlike anything they’ve ever seen before.” “USA Hit by Army of Sick Children:” “Guns, tanks, missiles, aircraft carriers — all are obsolete in postmodern warfare. The most effective weapon now for an army of conquest is a baby, preferably a sick one. Those sick enough to die can have devastating impact. The Fifth Column media used two illegal immigrant children who died in US custody recently to inflict massive damage on American sovereignty. Plenty more sick children are on the way.
“Border authorities are referring 50 people a day for urgent medical care, including tuberculosis, flu and even pregnant women about to give birth, a top official said Monday, saying it’s unlike anything they’ve ever seen before.
Most of those in need of care are children, and a staggering 28 percent are under age 5, having been dragged along for the trip by parents who in many cases are hoping to use the children as a shield against speedy deportation from the U.S.”
Many were ill before they left Central America. As CBP Commissioner Kevin McAleenan observes,
“We’re talking about cases of pneumonia, tuberculosis, parasites. These are not things that developed urgently in a matter of days.”
Nonetheless, if their parents can just drag them across the border before they die, the media will place full blame for their demise on the USA as part of the campaign to eliminate the last vestiges of border defense.
The caravans from Central America made for good theater, but now smugglers are using commercial buses to haul welfare colonists up through Mexico. This being much faster, it facilitates bringing very small children, and gives the severely ill a better chance to make it across the barely defended border before they die.”

The main purpose of US taxpayer funded Ellis Island was to protect public health. Persons with communicable diseases such as tuberculosis weren’t allowed to enter the US:

“Twelve million people passed through the Ellis Island, New York’s immigration station between 1892 and 1954….Physicians looked for signs of contagious diseases as well as mental and physical disabilities. Most immigrants passed inspection and went on their way to making new lives in the United States. Those determined to need additional examination had their clothing marked with chalk. They were sent for further investigation of their mental status and physical health. Some were diagnosed with a treatable condition and sent to the hospital on the island. A small percentage of would-be immigrants were sent home….
Over time the laws became more specific in terms of diseases that exclude entrance into the U.S. The laws also changed to reflect advances in medicine, such a growing list of vaccinations required prior to entering the country….
Medical screening of those seeking permanent or temporary residency in the U.S. continues to this day. Applicants must pass a medical examination and meet the vaccine requirements. The list of communicable diseases that can lead to exclusion includes tuberculosis, syphilis, Hansen’s disease (leprosy), and a few others as well as any diseases designated by presidential order and those listed as part of an international public health emergency; AIDS was on the list from early in the epidemic until a few years ago. Exceptions to exclusion can be made out of national interest or to reunite families.
The rich history of immigration and public health can be explored by visiting Ellis Island….The hospital and the contagious disease wards, where sick immigrants were sent for care, are now decaying and await restoration. But the Immigration Museum, which is almost fully restored and open to visitors, offers a compelling look at the history of the immigrants who passed through Ellis Island, those who worked there, and the public health inspections and medical care that were part of its long history.”…
