Abstract

The health director-general’s statement not to criticise migrants, who are allegedly infected by Covid-19, says it all. In other words, do not stigmatise them as carriers of the deadly disease. Many citizens are quick to do so because they cannot identify with the migrants. While some are stateless, others are considered illegal.
