Policies That Relate To Both Issuesto The Health Of Newcomersoften Reflect Misimpressions About Immigrants, And Their Impact On Health Care Systems. Despite The Fact That Immigrants Are Typically Younger And Healthier Than Natives, And That Many Immigrants Play A Vital Role As Caregivers In Their New Lands, Native Citizens Are Often Reluctant To Extend Basic Health Care To Immigrants, Choosing Instead To Let Them Suffer, To Let Them Die Prematurely, Or To Expedite Their Return To Their Home Lands. Likewise, Many Nations Turn Against Immigrants When Epidemics Such As Ebola Strike, Under The False Belief That Native Populations Can Be Kept Well Only If Immigrants Are Kept Out.In The Health Of Newcomers, Patricia Illingworth And Wendy E.
