This is a follow-up to my post yesterday in which I directed your attention to the Processing Countries map.
Ukraine is the location where the largest numbers of refugees are processed for your towns and cities, but Malaysia is not far behind.
And, as I said yesterday I am not seeing any US State Department guidance or mention that refugees from these locations are being blocked from entry into the US or are being tested for coronavirus if they are being admitted.
Here is the news from Malaysia (a Muslim country where we process Rohingya Muslims into the US, among other refugees who have found their way to that country).
From Reuters:
Malaysia virus tally hits highest in Southeast Asia due to mosque event
KUALA LUMPUR (Reuters) – Malaysia reported 190 new coronavirus cases on Sunday, with most linked to a religious event at a mosque that was attended by 16,000 people from several countries.
The new cases bring the total number of infections in the country to 428, the health ministry said, making it the worst affected in Southeast Asia.
A total of 243 cases have been linked to the mosque gathering with 9 cases critically ill in intensive care, the ministry said, adding that all event participants and their close contacts will be placed under mandatory quarantine for 14 days.
About 14,500 Malaysians and 1,500 foreigners attended the religious gathering between Feb. 27 and March 1 at a mosque near Kuala Lumpur, Malaysian health authorities have said.
Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin said on Friday that the country was facing a “second wave” of infections, and warned of an impact on economic growth.
How many US-bound refugees attended that event two weeks ago and then got on a plane to America?
