"Vaccinating Detained Migrants against SARS-CoV-2 — Preventing Another Tragedy"

The New England Journal of Medicine

Covid-19  has  devastated  refugees  and  asylum  seekers  in  U.S.  federal  detention  centers,  but  there has been recent cause for optimism.
The Trump administration,  however,  has  devised  a  work-around for vaccine distribution that jeopardizes the  prospect  of  immunizing  detainees,  further  endangering this vulnerable population.
