"There are no excuses for human rights abuses."
Medical neglect is torture. No more flu deaths!
There should be no children dying in state custody -- there should be no children in state custody!

Why are doctors who want to save lives such a threat to Border Patrol? By refusing to vaccinate, Border Patrol sends the messaging that they are choosing to risk a major flu epidemic - risking the lives of migrants, and, actually, all of our lives as well.

When you cram exhausted, traumatized people together and deny them vaccines, some of them will get sick and die. These deaths are CBP’s choice.
#Doctors4CampClosure has the vaccines. And medical licenses. And people ready & waiting to give the vaccines. This. Is. A. Choice.Show this thread -
In the last year, six children have died after being taken into immigration custody, and countless others have suffered abuse that could leave them traumatized for a lifetime. The fact that they are still refusing flu shots for migrants is a disgrace.

Three of those children died of flu-related illnesses. Immigration authorities under Trump Administration guidance have lied about these deaths and their role in denying children the care they deserve.

And yet, as flu season is upon us, the Trump administration has ignored the CDC and medical experts' demands to vaccinate children in their detention camps. We have no other option than to act now.

We end with a moment of silence for the people we came here to support. For the three children who died of the flu in last year's flu season. For all those currently held in detention centers. For all those whose lives are needlessly jeopardized. In solidarity. With hope.
