https://www.cbsnews.com/news/yazmin-juarez-mother-blames-ice-after-toddler-in-detention-later-died-u-s-sued-for-60-million/ Juarez's lawyers said Mariee developed a respiratory illness while she and her mother were detained at the South Texas Family Residential Center in Dilley, Texas. They accused U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement of releasing the pair while Mariee was still sick. Lawyers said medical staff at ICE's South Texas Family Residential Center examined and cleared Mariee for custody in March. Jones said within days, the toddler developed a respiratory infection after sharing a room with other children, some of whom were sick. "What started with a cough and congestion and runny nose, turned into intermittent fevers... sometimes spiking as high as over 104 degrees," Jones told CBS News in August. Advocates have long complained that medical care in Dilley is substandard and that detaining families damages their mental health. ICE has defended the care it provides at Dilley, saying detainees have access to medical professionals.
Firing squad for the ICE agents responsible in perpetuating kiddie internment camps.
Eh i rather avoid bringing that stuff back. Cause if we bring firing squads back, guess what might happen to the people at these camps...
This is an old story and CBS left out quite a few crucial details: https://www.kmov.com/news/us_world_news/mother-to-sue-u-s-after-toddler-treated-at-ice/article_baee6c30-2771-54a6-b2c2-428025a76fb4.html They were released March 25, and took a flight to New Jersey, where Juarez's mother lives. The next day, they went to an emergency room, the law firm said. The baby was hospitalized over the next several weeks and eventually transferred to Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. On May 10, Mariee suffered a hemorrhage that led to irreversible brain and organ damage. "But Vice News says five pediatricians who reviewed details of Mariee's care say that after contracting the illness, she received treatment that was consistent with what they would have done." The story says all five doctors believed Mariee's "recommended course of treatment would have been the same had she not been in ICE custody." "It's reasonable care," said Dr. Ewen Wang, associate director of pediatric emergency medicine at Stanford University Medical Center. "It didn't sound like she was in the best of health, but not something you anticipate dying from." It looks like the child had a rare allergic reaction to a vaccine
Yeah, but she was still forced to be in company with sick children who are not likely vaccinated or have any real medical care. Thats where the lawsuit is explaining, the detention center has bouts of illnesses that advocates have spoken about for months.
Unfortunate case however Mariee reportedly overcame the initial Bronchitis and developed pneumonia while being released from ICE after both were deemed healthy enough to travel and Mariee died from internal bleeding somehow caused by viral pneumonitis while on life support for 3 weeks according to VOX, the initial reporters. Strangely enough none of the other children around Mariee have died, and now the mother has to pay 2 million in medical bills.
You dont overcome bronchitis and suddenly get pneumonia with healthy lungs. Its extremely common for bronchitis to lead to pneumonia because the illness (which for children is commonly viral infections, which surprise, theres accounts of ill children forced to be around other healthy children in a enclosed area for several days) travels deeper in your lungs and becomes pneumonia. Interal bleeding is common for pneumonia and the actual killer majority of the time: Bleeding, Not Inflammation, Is Major Cause of Early Lung Infecti.. . All of this could be prevented with basic healthcare and quarantine. Also not all kids die from bronchitis, but that wasn't the point. You're forcing a vulnerable group to intermingle with very dangerous infections that are highly contagious.
I'm sure ICE denied, derided and distracted when questioned about this.
explain that to the VOX article I linked
Healthy lungs dont randomly develop pneumonia. Pneumonia is fluid build up in the airsacks of your lungs cause by another illness, just like viral infections that cause bronchitis. https://www.webmd.com/lung/understanding-pneumonia-basics Causes Bacteria, viruses, or fungi can cause pneumonia. Top causes include: Flu viruses Cold viruses RSV virus (the top cause of pneumonia in babies age 1 or younger Bacteria called Streptococcus pneumoniae and Mycoplasma pneumoniae If the child had a clean bill of health, she wouldn't have complications like pneumonia linked to bronchitis a handfull of days later. If theres known sick and infectious children being huddled with healthy children, then the facility is at fault for not providing a healthy or safe enviroment. Which in my article, it says that from witnesses and experts who have been in said facility.
