Ethiopia

Back in the 80’s we took in a refugee from Ethiopia and he stayed with us. He had a number of health problems including TB and I had to take him for a physical which included a series of inoculations. I had to spend a lot of time helping him get acclimated to his new homeland including getting him to the dentist and the eye doctor along with getting him a job. I bring this up because of the children who are coming across our southern border. They too are afflicted with various diseases and need special care before they can mingle with the general population. The question is who is going to do all of this? Has anyone even thought about this or will it come to our attention when a serious problem develops?
