US to Limit Visa Issuance to Foreigners
US authorities may cease the issuance of visas to individuals with health issues. This was reported by KFF Health News.
The initiative is under discussion in the Trump administration and pertains to those considered a "public charge" who require state funding for treatment or care.
According to the source, the entry restrictions apply to foreigners suffering from diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, cancer, or obesity. The administration justifies this step by the need to reduce social expenditures.
So far, the decision has not been confirmed, and the details of the program have not been officially presented. However, experts note that such a change could have a significant impact on US immigration policy and health rights.
