TB Case at ICE Facility Sparks Investigation | Denver News

Tuberculosis has been detected at the Aurora ICE Processing Center, sparking a high-stakes public health investigation blocked by the facility’s refusal to share critical data. Health officials have issued a legally binding order, with non-compliance risking $50,000 fines, following new state laws mandating inspections and full access for infectious disease investigations. Detainees are being moved and quarantined, but the extent of testing and containment remains unclear. Compounding the crisis, air conditioning failures and inconsistent mask use among staff and detainees raise alarms about infection control. This case underscores deep concerns over health conditions and oversight in private immigration detention facilities.
