I just hope this new policy won’t affect his Christian brothers from Nigeria — after all, they’re always the “favored ones,” right

Much ado about nothing.

US does not provide free or even subsidised medical care to foreigners.

You can only get medical attention if it is an emergency, which makes sense.
If you get medical services in an emergency, you will still sell your family house to pay for it.

Its for intending immigrants, not foreigners,who are otherwise known as non-immigrants. Are you sure you read the news at all?Once they're integrated into the US system they practically benefit from health insurance which drains them, should such immigrants have serious ailments.

Let Nigeria corrupt politicians fix the hospitals
you underestimate the incompetence of Nigerian politicians. They will rather go to Ghana or Dubai for treatment than fix any hospital in Nigeria.

There's no free medicare for citizens, talk less of immigrants.

You get a Job, you jump on medical insurance with monthly premiums which are expensive.

US has the most expensive medical cost in the advanced world.

UK, Europe including Scandinavia, all provide free and comprehensive medical care.

Exactly why I said it is much ado about nothing.

Wealthy people will be allowed to enter the US but listen

Politicians have the funds for private hospitals for how long .... ?

You think paying hundreds of thousands of dollars without government support for heart procedure or diabetes management is child's play...

Even your so called ultra rich people and politicians in this country will feel the heat in their pocket...

Then they will know it is wisdom to fix the healthcare system in Nigeria
you still have faith in nigerian politicians. They will steal more money from national wealth and tax you for more so they can meet up with their expenses abroad

We can’t keep pretending the healthcare crisis will fix itself. The time to rebuild Nigerian hospitals is now, not after foreign governments finally end the quiet subsidies that make our medical tourism possible. When that door closes, as it inevitably will, rushing to construct “emergency” hospitals overnight won’t save us.

Those who step off a plane and walk straight into a foreign hospital for treatment, funded indirectly by their taxpayers,have effectively been put on notice. That era is ending.

President Tinubu should declare a national state of emergency on healthcare. Even the presidency relies on treatment abroad, which is the clearest evidence that our system is broken from top to bottom.

Nigeria does not lack medical expertise. Nigerian doctors keep the American healthcare system functioning. Our crisis is not skill, it is governance, leadership, and administrative collapse.


If we fail to act, we will wake up one day with the borders tightened, the doors closed, and no choice but to build a collapsed sector from the ashes. Better to start the reconstruction now, deliberately, strategically, and urgently, before we are forced to do it in panic.
The American government keeps our profe doctors with high tech that would there jobs easier.

And you believe our politicians have endless amount of money for medical tourism for themselves and family members ?

Reality will definitely set in....

They either fix the healthcare system back home or we all die here

There are many ways around it and that's what Trump is trying to prevent. Some will call Emergency services and claim chest pain. EKG shows normal sinus rhythm. But guess what? They are already in the hospital clogging the system and eating up resources.

You don't even understand what is written there before you plunge yourself into perpetual wailing.

The message is for those emigrating to the US , not those going there to seek medical assistance.

If you check the weight of 3 Americans, it is said that one would be the combined weight of the other two.

It's a non-issue.

You don't really understand the message, that is why you are exposing your ignorance.

Nobody will be denied Visa once they're wealthy enough to pay.
The message is for those planning to relocate to the US permanently

You also don't understand the indirect message that is why you are exposing your ignorance on Nairaland...

Trump is indirectly telling your politicians to fix the healthcare system back home...

How many politicians have money for medical tourism for themselves and family members ?

You think paying hundreds of thousands of dollars not just for yourself but also for family members is easy... ?

Or you are being deceived to believe that your politicians have endless amount of money ?

Their brain will reset when they are no longer enjoying government support for medical treatments abroad

"While it technically applies to all visa applicants, including those seeking non-immigrant visas for tourism (B-1/B-2) and studies (F1), it is expected to be primarily used for those seeking to permanently reside in the US."


Do you understand English ?

"It technically applies to all" and "its expected to be primarily used"

“Foreign nationals seeking to immigrate to the United States could now be denied visas and green cards based on pre-existing chronic health conditions such as diabetes and heart disease, under new guidance issued by the Trump administration.”

It is for those migrating there to become residents but not for non-immigrants (visitors).
It’s going to be another cost for them sha because of the medical tests they will undergo. Our intending students and workers should brace up and watch their lifestyle.

Who says there's a free medicare for citizens? I said the news post was for intending immigrants (those who wish to emigrate to us for whatever reasons) . Foreigners( as you wrongly put it) entering or seeking a visa to enter the usa is a non-immigrant so the news isn't for them. Though no free medicare, there's health insurance for both eligible immigrants and citizens that reduces medical bills significantly.

Health insurance premiums are paid for by the patient.

I don't know why you even think people coming in from "less advanced" countries are overweight, in any case.

If not for the kind of government se have , we also should stop the importation of processed foods and stupid vaccines that causes these diseases from being imported into our country. Even pharmaceuticals should shift their importations to other countries. It's a simple as that .

Oh, I forgot. Baba Adeboye, Odumeje and the other pulpitprenuers have wiped off these illnesses from Nigeria christians. Only Nigeria. muslims have these illnesses.
