Immigrants with obesity, diabetes and other health problems may be denied visas

The Trump administration has issued new guidance that allows visa officers to deny entry to immigrants based on common health issues such as obesity and diabetes. This policy change raises concerns about discrimination against individuals with health conditions, potentially impacting their ability to immigrate to the U.S. The implications of this directive could lead to increased barriers for those seeking a better life in America, as health-related criteria are now a factor in visa eligibility.
