The squalid illegal immigrant shantytown under a bridge in Del Rio, Texas—where thousands of Haitians have gathered in recent days—will likely lead to an outbreak of COVID-19 and other transmissible diseases, say experts.
Stark images captured from the scene showed throngs of Haitian illegal aliens in makeshift camps made from plastic bags, tarps, scrap lumber, and sticks. Trash, empty bottles, and other items can be seen strewn about the encampment, while aerial photos showed large piles of garbage just several feet away from where people are sleeping.
