The Biden administration will offer Covid-19 vaccines to migrants taken into custody at the US-Mexico border, according to two sources familiar with the planning, as officials prepare for an influx of migrants.
The plan, which had earlier been a source of tension at the White House, could extend to thousands of migrants encountered at the US southern border. The Department of Homeland Security will be able to initially provide up to 2,700 vaccines per day, it said in a notice to Congress obtained by CNN, increasing to 6,000 daily by the end of May.
Last year, top White House officials rejected a proposal to vaccinate migrants -- a plan that had been intended to address public health concerns -- because they thought it would encourage more people to come to the US, sources told CNN. Now, the administration is moving ahead."The effort to vaccinate those in our care and custody, which is a public health best practice, has been ongoing for many months.
