last week we reached immigrant and activist anthony alexandre, who is detained there. poke to us by phone. he is a longme resident of the united states, originally from haiti. he has led two hunger strikes inside. i began by asking anthony to describe the conditions he and others are facing. in unmitigated disaster. the condition is still dire. the amount of detainees affected positive cases is around 250 detainees. donestill have not anything to mitigate the situation, the lack of health care -- we have between three to nine medical staff on any time on the premises. and we decided to hunger strike, because we were asking for basic dignity. and as a retaliation, they pepper-sprayed us. this was really hard for us. it was really hard to breathe. it was about 20 minutes when they came in and asked us that they're going to put us in a unit that had 15 -- 15 detainees that had tested posisitive. we did not want to leave because our body was so feeble because we were on a hunger strike. and they decided to come in and pepepper spray us. there was like people on the floor. i
