A 31-year-old Mexican national is the first detainee in Immigration and Customs Enforcement custody to test positive for the novel coronavirus, the agency announced
The detainee, who has been held at the Bergen County Jail in Hackensack, New Jersey, has been quarantined and is receiving care, ICE said, adding that the agency"is suspending intake at the facility until further information is available.""Consistent with CDC guidelines, those who have come in contact with the individual have been cohorted and are being monitored for symptoms," ICE said.
" Advocates' campaigns for immigration detainees to be released have drawn sharp criticism from organizations that support the government's crackdown on illegal immigration. Some have argued the US should instead increase the pace of deportations to lower the number of people detained.
