Detention Watch Network further said in a report last year that "ICE’s failure to release people from detention during the pandemic added over 245,000 cases to the total U.S. caseload": detentionwatchnetwork.org/sites/default/…

Detention Watch Network: "Throughout the pandemic, ICE failed to provide adequate supplies of soap and PPE to people in detention and to detention center staff. Testing was inadequate and irregular."
"In at least one detention facility—the Mesa Verde ICE Processing Center in Bakersfield, California—ICE purposefully rejected universal testing because it would be too difficult to quarantine all detained people who may test positive."
"ICE has even been blamed for spreading the virus
internationally by deporting ppl who were detained in facilities w/active cases w/out testing them. Ppl deported to countries including India, Haiti, Guatemala, and El Salvador tested positive shortly after their deportations."
