At least 186 people between the ages of 13 and 66 have reportedly contracted the virus at Texas immigration detention centers.
Nearly 200 people at immigration detention centers in Texas have come down with the mumps since last October, according to the Texas Department of State Health Services.
Mumps is a contagious disease caused by the paramyxovirus. While it is preventable with the MMR vaccine, which has a 97 percent effective rate, without the vaccine the virus can spread easily. The reported mumps outbreak came as doctors working at the border warned that migrants and asylum seekers arriving in the U.S. with injuries and health problems were not receiving adequate medical care.
According to The Times, some migrants described being left alone in concrete cells with broken bones, or after undergoing surgery without adequate pain medication.
