Demographic statistics in France have long been occluded by laws against collecting or reporting any data based on immigrant status or ethnic origin. However, an ingenious French analyst has discovered a method of approximating the percentage of immigrant births: the incidence of sickle cell trait among newborns.

Study indicates the magnitude of population replacement at work in France
PARIS (via NOVOPRESS Bulletin réinformation) — The Institute for Public Health, a department belonging to the Health Ministry, published a study in July 2012 showing the percentage of births at risk for Sickle Cell Disease in 2010. This genetic disease has the characteristic of affecting almost exclusively non-European populations, mainly those from “the Caribbean, black Africa, but also North Africa”.
This disease may therefore quantify the extent of immigration. In Ile-de-France, for example, in year 2010 60% of births were considered at risk (see map above). From these figures it can be concluded that 60% of births in Ile-de-France are from non-European populations. In comparison, the previous study based on 2005 data reported a figure of 54%, which shows that the proportion of births from non-Europeans, already huge, is rapidly increasing. The figures for other regions speak for themselves.
This study provides (partly) some fundamental numbers regarding those famous “ethnic statistics” which are still banned in France. These provide the keys to understand in full context the frightening reality of the ongoing demographic substitution.
This phenomenon may be observed elsewhere in Western Europe. The United Kingdom, for example, presents a situation similar to that of France. According to the last census in 2011, the country has 7.5 million immigrants, a significant increase in 10 years, which means a 13% of the population. Finally, less than 45% of Londoners are of native British origin. They have become a minority in their own capital.
This mass immigration is no less massive when it comes to costs. Several studies have been conducted on the issue, including those of the Foundation Polémia or Jean-Paul Gourevitch’s study for the Association of Taxpayers, bearing the title “The true cost of immigration”. The latter shows that immigration has a net cost of more than $ 17 billion for France. This means that the cost of regular and irregular migration, integration policies, public investment in schools or housing and security is much greater than the value produced by immigrant labor in terms of GDP.
