Joe Biden’s Border Crisis is Becoming a Superspreader Event

The Biden-Harris administration’s stringent mask guidance for fully vaccinated Americans versus their open border policies for COVID-positive migrants is a slap in the face to those who have played their part to “flatten the curve” and combat COVID-19.

Joe Biden’s Border Crisis is Becoming a Superspreader Event

As COVID-positive migrants wander the streets of South Texas unmasked and out of federal custody, Joe Biden is urging fully vaccinated Americans and children to once again wear masks indoors.

The number of migrants who tested positive for COVID-19 in the Rio Grande Valley (RGV) sector alone increased by 900%, according to a Fox News report last week. Those who are detained by Border Patrol and test positive or show symptoms for COVID are then handed over to a local charity group where they are placed in hotels throughout the area. 

Local police noted, however, that they are not able to prevent any of the COVID-positive migrants from leaving the hotel and traveling to other locations in the U.S. On Tuesday, The La Joya Police Department sent out a public health warning citing reports that visibly sick migrants had been at a nearby Whataburger not wearing masks.

The Biden-Harris administration’s open border policies have led to a historic influx of migrants at the border. A new report from Axios revealed that about 50,000 migrants who crossed the border illegally have been released into the U.S. without a court date. Though they were instructed to report to an ICE office instead, only 13 percent have shown up.

As COVID-positive migrants are being released into the U.S. with no intentions of reappearing, the administration is asking fully vaccinated Americans and even children to take responsibility for the coronavirus surge. 

Flip-flopping on their previous guidance, the CDC released new mask guidelines advising fully vaccinated individuals to wear masks indoors in areas where the delta variant is more prevalent. All teachers, staff, and K-12 students are also being asked to wear masks at school, regardless of their vaccination status.

Bottom line: The Biden-Harris administration’s stringent mask guidance for fully vaccinated Americans versus their open border policies for COVID-positive migrants is a slap in the face to those who have played their part to “flatten the curve” and combat COVID-19.
