Lice, hepatitus, TB, chicken pox, scabies plague a third of the caravan migrants - and now there's rain
By Monica Showalter
As I write this from San Diego, the rain is pouring outside my window, a rare winter rain brought on by an offshore tropical storm blowing in from the west. It's heavy, dripping, dropping rain and it's getting the entire region good. Normally, rain is a cause for rejoicing in these parts because drought is the norm and rain makes everything turn green.
But you don't want to be out in that rain, which is where the Tijuana caravan migrants are, just south of San Diego, soaking up rain, mud, germs, cold, bacteria, viruses - and picking up diseases.
Right now, it's happening in Tijuana, where 6,000 migrants are still camped out. Fox News reports that more than a third, some 2,200 of them are being treated for lice, scabies, chicken pox, hepatitus, HIV, tuberculosis, infections. The San Diego television press reported last night that measles has also been detected in the squalid encampment where new caravans are arriving even as some pack up and go home.
