SAN DIEGO (KGTV) – Concerns continue to grow amid reports that President Trump would possibly allow the border government to ban U.S. citizens suspected of having a coronavirus from entering the country.
Five years ago, Les and Marilyn Widd retired and took a big step when buying a waterfront home in Rosarito, Mexico. This dream retreat was suddenly marred by considerations about COVID-19 and the presidential action imaginable.
According to published reports, President Trump is comparing regulations to allow border agents to temporarily block the entry of a U.S. citizen or legal permanent resident, if there is an explanation for why the user has a coronavirus.
“Absolutely annoying, disturbing,” said Les Widd, 70.
The main points of the imaginable plan are unknown, but Widd has listened enough.
“This violates their constitutional rights to get redress in their own country,” Widd said.
Widd says if one of them developed symptoms, he’d have few options. Your hospital in Rosarito does not settle for patients with COVID-19.
“In the hospitals of Tijuana, they have everything there is in the surrounding cities. They’re on edge. It’s hard to find a bed there,” Widd said.
Both Widd have reference hospitals in San Diego where they have already gained treatment. Both are covered through Medicare and say they have the right to use it, especially in the case of a pandemic.
“We’ve worked our whole lives and contributed to it. We can use our fitness insurance,” Widd said.
He also mentioned the extent to which a border ban would be effective.
“If things go well, I will check by any means imaginable to cross the borderArray. People will lie about their condition to cross the border,” Widd said.
Several estimates place the number of Americans in Rosarito between 12,000 and 15,000 people.
