The article says at the beginning that they were illegal immigrants but


later refers to them as migrants which is probably more accurate. After all, if we admitted them then they aren't illegal by definition. Now I do think it would make sense to quarantine anyone testing positive for the virus who is coming into the country, legal or illegal. Until recently, the state of Hawaii did that with tourists. But as the article states, these people tested positive AFTER they were admitted, and neither the state, nor feds, nor city of Brownsville has the authority to FORCE them to quarantine, no more than they would be able to force any other resident to do so.
