The U.S census bureau collects and publishes comprehensive, detailed data about ethnic origin for people in the United States. While this may be contributing to dividing our nation, the data continues to be collected. All health treatment facilities request demographic/race/origin data when treatment is provided as part of intake processes. It may be prudent to analyze and process this data to determine if the increase in STD’s may correlate to recent influxes of illegal aliens, more recently termed “migrants” coming through our southern border at record rates. This could be important information so that programs to educate and communicate ways individuals can practice safe sex and improve hygiene in order to reduce STD cases, can be more effectively targeted at ethnic groups that may be suffering from greater STD cases than other groups. For example, the 500 million $ proposed to be spent on funding STD clinics may need to include funding for employing numerous interpreters at each clinic in order to effectively communicate what patients must do to be treated successfully and prevent further disease. Not approaching a solution in this manner would result in another failed, federally funded program that passes money out with little limited results, which would be yet another waste of taxpayers money.
Is there anything you won’t blame on immigrants?
What a ridiculous reply to Mark H’s well-stated thesis, A T.
It wasn’t well-stated and it certainly isn’t a thesis. A thesis actually has work put into it. This was a long rant of speculation. There’s no data, no supporting evidence of any kind to support their case. It took a 5-second Google Scholar search to find academic papers on the rise of STIs, which has been a trend over the last six years. There isn’t even a correlation to immigration rates and STIs.
I’m not sure the evidence supports Mark H’s claim all that much either. The overwhelming majority of immigrants in the US come from Latin American and Caribbean countries. And only one of them, Haiti, has HIV infection rates on par with the countries faring the worst in Subsaharan Africa.
A 16% rise in HIV cases year over year should be a crisis, but then, so should the astronomical increases in crime, in suicides, in cancer rates, and all the other evidence of civilizational collapse. But these things get treated like third-tier news because of the political entities in charge.
Let’s not exonerate our own people. For the better part of the last 15 years, the messaging on the dangers of HIV have becoming increasingly muted, even as we only have good treatments but no provable cures. That means an entire generation of kiddos now sexually active has grown up hearing far more “love is love” than “don’t be a ho”. The monkeypox outbreak should have been the first clue that the people who are still most susceptible to transmission of many STDs–men who have sex with men (MSM)–have gotten a tad complacent.
Then again, this means I’m just trading scorn from one “marginalized group” to another, so I’m more than ready to start munching the popcorn when A T. launches his/her/its/their/xir vitriol at me.
What data suggest that illegal aliens or migrants at the souther border of the US have higher rates of STDs than US citizens throughout the nation. However, data exists that certain infections occurred first in Europe then became more common in the US, yet it is doubtful the transmission was via those without documentation at the southern border of the US. What about legal aliens, those who enter the US with valid visas but tend to stay longer and blend in flawlessly with the majority suburban and rural populations — they too might harbor or pass on an STD.
And [poor] hygiene per se would not effect the STDs highlighted in the article. STD infections are spread via sex. Those with unquestionably impeccable hygiene can contract STDs as well.
“All health treatment facilities request demographic/race/origin data when treatment is provided as part of intake processes. It may be prudent to analyze and process this data to determine if the increase in STD’s may correlate to recent influxes of illegal aliens, more recently termed “migrants” coming through our southern border at record rates.”
There is no COMPILED data to suggest higher rates of STD’s from illegal aliens. The RAW data may exist to COMPILE such data.
Improved hygiene results from protected sex as a direct result of less exchange of body fluids.
