BREAKING: Adelanto Detention Center has now a #COVID19 outbreak. We heard yesterday that 32 ppl were in quarantine by noon. @ahilan_toolong & the @aclu team confirmed 38 case as of last night. This is after 300 new arrests were made by ICE in LA the last 50 days. Connect the dots

This is so heartbreaking.
ICE has refused to release ppl with disabilities and chronic medical conditions AND without criminal record.
ICE has refused to release or test ppl with symptoms claiming they do not meet the CDC requirements for testing.

ICE continues to arrest and transfer ppl to ADC from both CBP and state prisons without little protocols for monitoring ppl.
Medical staff are abusive to ppl who complain or make repeated sick calls.

About 50% of new #COVID19 tests so far have been positive. This may be the highest positivity rate of a control sample in ICE detention to date.
This was so preventable.
This was so preventable.
On 14 September 2020 while they already had notice of the start of the outbreak, ICE filed declarations in court claiming that they have done everything there was to do & have been so successful in preventing #COVID-19 outbreak at #Adelanto.
Then they went through the medical history of our clients who they refuse to release because they are, get this! not "individuals with disabilities" & they have NOT exhibited any #COVID19 related symptoms so they was no need for them to be tested. Look at their declaration 
This is an asylum seeker without ANY criminal record!
L complained of chills, cough, sore throat, headaches, body aches & asked 4 #COVID19 test.
A *nurse* recorded only "sore throat, headaches, body aches" in med records & send her back 2 unit w ibuprofen. Told her "we cant test everyone who asks, if U unhappy go back 2 U country"

See ya' in court assholes!
Advocates have been screaming into the void that is ICE & our judicial system. Judge Hatter ordered major population reduction in Adelanto in April but 9th Cir stayed it. Since then ~ 40 individual judicial bail grants have had. The only workable solution is to #FreeThemAll
