Kamala Harris' open borders, there is a rise of HIV cases in Springfield, Ohio, pic.twitter.com/X7jVPHcIfiStay woke with our briefing while staying informed on all things LGBTQ+ entertainment, life, and more!According to Bruce Vanderhoff, Director of the State Department of Health, there has been no “measurable or discernible increase” in the spread of disease since the Haitian influx into Springfield.The department’s website also regularly publishes data about numerous infectious diseases in the state and hasn’t seen any noticeable rise in new HIV cases, despite Vance insisting that it’s happening because, according to him, someone “on the ground” told him so.Meanwhile, Gov. Mike DeWine–who, like Vance, is a Republican–said the reports the VP wannabe appears to be citing are based on debunked misinformation that first started circulating on social media.And Clark County Health Commissioner Chris Cook called his remarks complete “nonsense,” noting that new reported cases of HIV in Springfield went from five per 100,000 people in 2020 to nine per 100,000 people in 2022, but that number is about on par with the average of seven new reported cases per 100,000 in the rest of Ohio.In a statement, Equality Springfield’s Executive Committee called Vance’s comments on HIV “dangerous and baseless.”Equality Springfield unequivocally denounces the dangerous and baseless claims that our Haitian population has led to “skyrocketing” cases of HIV in Springfield.
