According to FEMA, less than 6% of Covid tests of immigrants at the US-Mexico border had come back positive, lower than the overall positivity rate in Texas.
So illegal immigrants come from an area where the Delta variant is rampant, travel for days without masks, in close proximity to each other unvaccinated and arrive at the border with a lower rate of covid infection than a state with 42% vaccinated. Do you see a conundrum here?
