https://n.pr/2VIEaBZImmigrant asylum seekers wait for aid at the Catholic Charities Humanitarian Respite Center after being released by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), in McAllen, Texas. Migrants told NPR conditions in the CBP holding cells were unhealthy. One 16-year-old Guatemalan immigrant died on Monday.

The facility was shut down for 24 hours after a 16-year-old Guatemalan boy died in a holding cell. 32 migrants were later identified as positive for influenza and were given medical treatment.
