ICE confirms a measles outbreak in the nation's largest detention facility in Texas - NBC News
Overview
At least 14 measles cases were confirmed at a large ICE detention facility, which has been closed to visitors while authorities respond. That cluster, alongside a separate outbreak that spread from Seminole, Texas into Mexico, highlights how measles can rapidly move across communities, borders and congregate settings. The incidents underscore the need for coordinated public-health responses, testing, vaccination, and continued access to legal counsel and medical care in detention settings.
