Coranovirus in California Podcast: Immigrant Detainees Fight COVID-19

On an episode of the “Coronavirus in California” podcast for the Los Angeles Times, Gustavo Arellano interviews Sergio Jonathan Moreno, who was just released (with the help of the UC Irvine law school Immigrant Rights Clinic) from one of the largest U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detention centers in the country  (Adelanto ICE Processing Center in San Bernardino County (California)), because he is at high risk for contracting COVID-19. Moreno tells about the cramped quarters, which the ACLU has called a “tinderbox scenario” for a potential coronavirus outbreak.
