Migrants from China

CMAJ 2000;162:972

In response to: A.M. Robertson
The headline referred to the importance the "snakeheads" — the people who smuggled these migrants to Canada — placed on health status in choosing which people to bring. They did this because healthy migrants could pay them back faster. Even the chronic carriers of hepatitis B appeared to be in good health.
