[Daily Caller] If Ebola reaches South America, the U.S. border will be swamped by a huge wave of terrified migrants, says a top military commander.“If it breaks out, it’s literally, ‘Katie bar the door,’ and there will be mass migration into the United States,” Marine Corps Gen. John F. Kelly, chief of U.S. Southern Command, said Tuesday at a speech in Washington, D.C.
“They will run away from Ebola, or if they suspect they are infected, they will try to get to the United States for treatment,” he said at National Defense University.
Liberians and other Africans are already trying to get into the United States via Mexico and other Latin American countries, he said.
As if we needed another reason to secure the border. I hope someone in Washington is listening.
