"The number of immigrants with COVID-19 in Immigration Customs Enforcement custody has risen rapidly. More than 2,700 detainees nationwide have tested positive, according to ICE data, and the Eloy detention facility is among the hardest hit by the pandemic. More than 200 detainees there have tested positive — a tenfold increase in less than three weeks."
NPR published an article highlighting the vast spread of COVID amongst immigrants in detention centers. As the pandemic has spread, ICE has continued to arrest and hold detainees in detention centers, while not providing safety measures to curb or prevent the spread of the virus.
