More than 2,000 quarantined over mumps outbreak at immigration centers

Get breaking news alerts and special reports. The news and stories that matter, delivered weekday mornings.PHOENIX — U.S. immigration authorities say more than 2,200 people exposed to a mumps outbreak in at least two detention facilities have been quarantined.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement said Tuesday that the 25-day quarantine began March 7 at facilities in Pine Prairie, Louisiana, and Aurora, Colorado. A spokesman says 236 detainees have had confirmed or probable cases of mumps in 51 facilities in the past year. There were no reported cases between 2016 and 2018 at any ICE facilities.

Mumps is extremely rare, and infections have dropped off by 99 percent since vaccinations began in the late 1960s. It can spread quickly through coughing, sneezing or even talking. A measles outbreak at an immigrant detention center in Eloy, Arizona, in 2016 contributed to a statewide outbreak after some employees refused to get vaccinated.

Really I'm so surprised that all these wonderful people would be willing to bring this disease here to America, I mean they love this country so much an yet there more than willing to infect our children

Keep those MFs out of my neighborhood

Hell yes......quarantine those illegals

We the people want these people to go home and come legally. Fix immigration PERIOD.

Hey let’s blame the anti vaxxers 😂😂

Defund ICE. Defund the Incompetent Customs Enforcers.

BULLSHIT MADE UP STORY!

Just keep overcrowding and see what can happen next. I bet prisons are safer than these detention facilities.

Mumps? Were the detention facilities located in 1906?

CloverChron 🤔

Keep them in there

Seen that coming

What's this? It can't be! I thought immigrants bringing diseases was just a hoax started by Republicans 🙄

The scary question is what other diseases are being brought in to the US?

Once upon a time herd immunity was enough.

More illegals, more disease As always, thanks libs.

Take two aspirin and call me in the morning.

Concentration camps are notorious as a communicable disease vector

Or, more than more than 200 dozens.

Thats what happens when grimey imigrants flood the country.

Stay on your side of the fence

Nice, now let just open up those borders and let everyone & everything in.

Trust the Government. Not.

No crisis though....

They're bringing disease with them and the left want to expose the general public to it.

Remember - most good zombie movies start with an outbreak in a police station or hospital...

A small 'thank you' gift from our third world shit hole refugees
