Spike in Tuberculosis Cases Possibly Linked to Migrants

Tuberculosis cases are surging in New York City.

The disease is caused by bacteria that spread through the air. It can become deadly if it is not properly treated.

The illness may be coming back strong in the United States with a 20% year-over-year increase hitting New York.


The growth of TB in New York is the highest the city has seen in over a decade.

There is speculation that the massive influx of illegal immigrants swarming the city’s streets is contributing to the rise in cases. There are confirmed cases of migrants testing positive for tuberculosis at the southern border.

The legitimate powers of government extend to such acts only as are injurious to others. But it does me no injury for my neighbor to say there are twenty gods, or no god. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
