In addition to the criminal element 1/3 among the mob caravan have health issues and some are carrying infectious diseases. It won't be long before these health issues grow as  signs are being put up telling these people not to spit! Let Mexico deal with their own migration problems.

It's costing Tijuana $30,000 a day to care for these people. Once they get into the US they and their families (due to chain migration) become our economic problem - funded by the taxpayers. 

Build a wall and keep them OUT of the U.S.!!!

One-third of migrants in caravan are being treated for health issues, Tijuana health official says


Migrants who came with the caravan are suffering from respiratory infections, tuberculosis, chickenpox and other serious health issues, Tijuana's Health Department warned on Thursday morning.

The spokesman told Fox News that out of 6,000 migrants currently residing in the city, over a third of them (2,267) are being treated for health-related issues.

There are three confirmed cases of tuberculosis, four cases of HIV/AIDS and four separate cases of chickenpox, the spokesman said.

At least 101 migrants have lice and multiple instances of skin infections, the department’s data shows.

There’s also a threat of Hepatitis outbreak due to unsanitary conditions, the spokesman said. The thousands of migrants are being sheltered at the Benito Juarez Sports Complex near the San Ysidro U.S.-Mexico Port of Entry, despite the place being capable of providing for 1,000 people.

The location also has only 35 portable bathrooms. A sign reading “No Spitting” was put up, as coughing and spitting by migrants are rampant in the shelter.............
