How many do you suppose were infected by the millions that came acoss the border unvaccinated?
Which border? The one to our south? The one to our north? And what about our many international airports? Each one receives thousands of travelers from foreign nations daily, not to mention Americans returning from trips abroad, after all.
Now let's turn to the fact checkers:
Facts First: Public health experts dispute the notion that migrants entering the southern border are largely responsible for exploding Covid cases across a large swath of the country. Instead, experts point to the more transmissible Delta variant and relatively low vaccination rates as primary causes of this latest wave. It’s also worth noting that some of the Republicans blaming the surge on migrants have banned mask mandates and pushed back against policies requiring vaccines.
