Advocates claim ICE is planning to deport severely ill detainees to Africa, raising concerns about their medical care.
Some sick people who are in jail for a long time are going to be sent to faraway places like Africa. The people who run the jail say they can't take them, so they're going to send them anyway. This is very scary because the sick people won't get the medicine they need.

Krome Detention Center Conditions":"The Krome detention center in Miami has been found to be severely overcrowded, with 1,102 detainees in a facility designed for 882. Government inspectors have reported multiple violations of detention standards, including inadequate toilet facilities and overcrowding. Advocates have been demanding oversight for years.","
Medical Care and Deportation":"Multiple detainees with medical conditions, including uncontrolled diabetes and acute pancreatitis, have been targeted for deportation to Africa.
