The New York Times and the Marshall Project released an investigation into ICE's treatment of immigrant detainees. The investigation says it "reveals how Immigration and Customs Enforcement became a domestic and global spreader of COVID-19." The report tells stories from immigrants who were deported, some who had tested positive for COVID, reported it, and were still deported, thus allowing them to infect others on the plane who could then infect others upon landing.
