Italy: Migrant transport NGO escorts in more coronavirus-positive Muslim migrants

Jul 5, 2020 11:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

Europe is under a two tier system. One which disregards the well-being and economy of its own citizens and the other which facilitates Muslim migrants as special people with a superior status.

Now in Italy, “the migrant transport NGO Mediterranea Saving Humans has brought another 43 migrants to Italy from North Africa, and eight have so far tested positive for the Wuhan coronavirus.”

The Italian Interior Ministry warned last month that at least 20,000 migrants were “poised to set out from the coast of North Africa toward Italy . In a letter to the European Commission, it dramatically warned that a new emergency is approaching and called for a common European strategy in response.”

Meanwhile, the UK government is passively sitting by while illegal migrants flood into their country via the English Channel and with help from the French navy.  A record 167 illegal migrants swarmed into the UK in a single day in June. On another day, it was 91 Muslim migrants.

The bulk of these migrants arrived since the coronavirus lockdown, with about 1,359 migrants arriving since March, out of a total of 1,830 for 2020 so far.

“Migrant Transport NGO Brings More Coronavirus Positive Migrants to Italy,” by Chris Tomlinson, Breitbart, July 3, 2020:

The migrant transport NGO Mediterranea Saving Humans has brought another 43 migrants to Italy from North Africa, and eight have so far tested positive for the Wuhan coronavirus.

The migrants were brought to the Sicilian town of Augusta by the NGO’s vessel the Ionian Sea. Local authorities tested them for the Chinese virus, and the governor of Sicily Nello Musumeci announced the results on Thursday.

“Of the 43 immigrants landed in Augusta, eight tested positive for coronavirus. They are in Noto and not on a ship in the bay as the Sicilian government had asked; the state says that the ship is too expensive,” Musumeci said, according to Il Giornale.

He went on to add: “Why was the quarantine on the mainland? Why does nobody inform us about the real conditions of the camps in Libya? These are questions that Rome has a duty to answer.”

Mediterranea Saving Humans confirmed the eight cases of coronavirus. They released a statement saying: “The crew of the Ionian Sea ship is now at anchor in the port of Augusta, already in quarantine.”

The incident is the second time a migrant transport NGO has brought migrants infected with the coronavirus to Italy in recent weeks. Last month, the NGO Sea-Watch brought a total of 209 migrants to Italy, 28 of which later tested positive for the virus.

Several migrant transport NGOs have resumed activities in the last few weeks including SOS Mediterranee, a French NGO that is said to have picked up 180 migrants in the last several days and will also be heading to Italy soon…..

    The mooching, gate-crashing invaders now have more rights than taxpaying, law-abiding Italian voters. The Italian voters should stop allowing the Leftards to deceive them and they should get rid of that certifiable idiot who calls himself ‘pope’.

    ……………..

    This is allowed to happen over and over again–in Italy, in France, in the UK.

    How many of these nation’s own citizens will become ill or die because of these insane policies?

      It’s all about the money. Just follow the money. There’s gold in them there immigrants!

        Money for some, curious george. But the West overall is bleeding money over these unemployed, high-crime Muslim migrants

    “The migrant transport NGO Mediterranea Saving Humans” should be made to take ALL Muslims back to their Islamic countries at their own expense!
    “The migrant transport NGO Mediterranea Saving Humans” – these folk are not elected representatives, they are aiding terrorists and should be acknowledged as terrorists! They should be made to pay compensation to all victims of Jihad rape, murder & terrorism!
    They should be held to account!

    Funny. I thought Allah was supposed to be protecting his Believers from this dreaded plague? Or is this part of His devious plan use his Believers to spread the virus among the Kuffar, just like rats spread the Bubonic Plague to the people of Europe in the middle ages?

    In Australia for the past 5 to 6 years we have towed back to Indonesia every boat that as attempted to land on our shores. Most of the boat people are Muslims (surprise, surprise) and Tamils. Why can’t Boris just tow the boats back to France? If he did, he’d be popular. Or, is he afraid of the mob who may violently protest?

      Kenny, I fear that your closing questions is the truth – fear of muckle riots! I’m an old man, and I’m glad that I’ll not be around to see the obvious take-over!

      Yes–a wise move on Australia’s part.

    The Italian Democrat party arranged to get rid of Matteo Salvini as prime minister, and so this happened.

    It looks like the Italian Democrat party wants to destroy Italy as much as the American Democrat party wants to destroy the USA.

    The author states, “and eight have so far tested positive for the Wuhan coronavirus.”
    ………………………………………..

    I’m impressed!

    The author is correctly pointing out the source of the problem, “the Wuhan coronavirus. It would have been even more impressive if she had written, “the Wuhan, Chinese Communist Party coronavirus.”
