By extension, the employees’ families are also at risk due to this decision. I guess if this administration can hurt immigrants, then it does not matter to them who else is hurt in the process.

Deliberately creating circumstances that have now become substantial disease vectors for the entire population is a critical issue.

Trump is going to own this whether he likes it or not. It is the Trump Epidemic. So far, we have mumps spreading in ten states and vectors that are ripe and ready for the next flu season.

Who imagines that this is going to be contained? Send not for whom the bell tolls, it tolls for thee. This is a public health crisis in the making. What other diseases will now be taking a foothold because the perfect conditions are being created for them by this MisAdminstration?

The question that comes to mind is: is this the product of ineptitude or is it intentional. This is not just about the detainees, though we now it has a lot to do with the cruel and unusual punishment that is being inflicted on individuals and families.
