Coronavirus is also a border security issue

In June of last year, to encourage members of the press to cover real news relevant to the public, my staff distributed copies of an article entitled “Border Patrol agents fall prey to illnesses plaguing migrant holding centers” to a huge crowd of reporters camped outside my office trying to get a peek inside a closed-door hearing about special counsel Robert Mueller’s report across the hallway in the House Judiciary Committee.

Most of them took one look at the headline, saw that it had nothing to do with the Mueller fiasco, and tossed it aside. After what our nation and the world has been through in the last two months with the Wuhan, China, coronavirus, I suggest media outlets go back and take another look.
