GUATEMALA CITY - More than 230 deported Guatemalans being held in mass quarantine at a sports center in the Central American nation’s capital are fearful they may have been exposed to the coronavirus after compatriots flown home from the United States tested positive.
Giammattei suggested more on the flight had tested positive as well. The infected deportees are interned in a hospital in Guatemala City. “We don’t want to be here, we prefer to quarantine at home,” said a man named Daniel at the sports center, who did not provide his last name and who arrived on Tuesday from Brownsville, Texas, along with 108 other Guatemalans. “We feel at risk here,” he said.
“They check our temperature at midnight, at four in the morning, then again at noon and in the afternoon, and again at night,” said Daniel, adding he had not been tested for the coronavirus. Family members also said they are concerned disease might spread at the complex and said they had not received information about how long their loved ones would be held.
