<p>Los migrantes alojados en refugios temporales en cinco parques de la ciudad pronto serán trasladados a otros refugios, después de casi un año de protestas de los miembros de la comunidad, anunció el lunes la oficina del alcalde.</p><p>El sábado comenzarán los trabajos para trasladar a los migrantes a refugios cercanos desde las cinco ubicaciones del Distrito de Parques de Chicago: Brands Park, Broadway Armory Park, Gage Park, Leone Park y Piotrowski Park. El proceso durará varias semanas, según un comunicado de prensa.</p><p>Una conferencia de prensa por el concejal Raymond López (15º) en la casa de campo de Gage Park trajo a Julio Ocampo desde su casa en la misma calle.</p><p>"Este hombre me ha alegrado el día", dijo Ocampo a una multitud de personas. "No me lo puedo creer. Me ha alegrado el día. Venía aquí a discutir, pero ahora estoy contento. Nunca había tenido tantos problemas como en los últimos seis meses".</p><p>Ocampo procedió a abrazar a López tres veces a lo largo de su discurso, detallando las quejas que ha tenido con los migrantes de su barrio.</p><p>El residente de Gage Park, que llegó a EE.UU. a los 4 años, acusa a los migrantes de fumar y beber, ocupar espacios de estacionamiento y recibir "limosnas."</p><p>"No es porque seamos antiinmigrantes; es porque estamos orientados al vecindario. Protegemos nuestro barrio", dijo.</p><p>Otros vecinos aún no lo celebran. Juana Galón no cree que el parque de su comunidad vuelva a la normalidad.</p><p>"Si no tienen trabajo, no tienen un lugar seguro donde estar. Estarán aquí", dijo Galón.</p><p>Ariana Avonce, de 26 años, dice que ella y otros residentes cercanos son "escépticos" sobre el futuro de los migrantes.</p><p>"Es un paso en la dirección correcta. Sin embargo, como he mencionado, seguimos siendo escépticos hasta que veamos resultados", dijo Avonce. "Creo que es importante que tengamos esta conversación sobre la inmigración ilegal. Porque sí, puede que los saquemos de la casa de campo, pero igual los vamos a trasladar a otro sitio y va a ser el problema de otro vecindario".</p><p>El pasado fin de semana, los residentes del área de Gage Park protestaron por la permanencia de los migrantes en la casa de campo de Gage Park, cuando comenzó el plan de desalojo del alcalde Brandon Johnson.</p><p>Una vez que los migrantes se hayan trasladado a otros refugios, el distrito de parques empezará a trabajar haciendo reparaciones o realizando tareas de mantenimiento, dijo la oficina del alcalde.</p><p>Las instalaciones del distrito de parques se convirtieron en refugios para migrantes por primera vez en mayo de 2023. Las protestas no tardaron en llegar, aunque la gente de algunas comunidades tendió la mano para apoyarlos.</p><p>"Nosotros, como comunidad, hemos abierto nuestras puertas y nuestros corazones a nuestros nuevos vecinos", dijo el concejal Mike Rodríguez (22º) en el comunicado del lunes. "Los residentes de La Villita están emocionados de volver al Piotrowski Park y poder acceder a toda la programación que ofrece".</p><p>"Los departamentos de la Municipalidad trabajarán para asegurar una transición suave con la menor interrupción posible para los residentes del refugio y la comunidad", según el comunicado de prensa.<br></p>

<p>Dos estudiantes de las Escuelas Públicas de Chicago se encuentran entre un puño de personas que padecieron sarampión, lo que eleva el total en la ciudad a 12 hasta el jueves por la noche, confirmaron funcionarios escolares y de salud.</p><p>A principios de la semana pasada, CPS se enteró de un caso positivo de sarampión que involucró a un estudiante de la Escuela Primaria Philip D. Armor en Bridgeport y el Departamento de Salud Pública de Chicago confirmó otro caso en la Academia Primaria Cooper Dual Language en Pilsen.</p><p>Ambas escuelas se comunicaron con todo el personal y las familias como parte de los "protocolos normales".</p><p>"La salud, la seguridad y el bienestar de nuestros estudiantes y personal es una prioridad absoluta y es por eso que las Escuelas Públicas de Chicago continúan trabajando estrechamente con nuestros socios de la Municipalidad, incluyendo el Departamento de Salud Pública de Chicago (CDPH), para atender a los estudiantes no vacunados, y dos casos positivos de sarampión que involucran a estudiantes de CPS", dijo CPS en un comunicado. "Continuaremos brindando recursos, apoyo e información a toda nuestra comunidad para garantizar que nuestro valioso personal y nuestras familias tengan la información adecuada para mantenerse seguros".</p><p>En una carta el miércoles, el director ejecutivo de CPS, Pedro Martínez, instó a las familias y al personal a comunicarse con sus proveedores de atención médica si no estaban seguros de su estado de vacunación y a visitar farmacias o clínicas de vacunación del CDPH para recibir la vacuna contra el sarampión, las paperas y la rubéola si la necesitan. .</p><p>"Noticias como esta pueden ser inquietantes, pero quiero asegurarle a nuestra comunidad de CPS que nuestras escuelas son seguras", escribió Martínez.</p><p>Añadió que el brote no comparte similitudes con la pandemia de COVID-19 porque "la gran mayoría de los residentes de Chicago (más del 90 por ciento) están protegidos contra el sarampión mediante la vacuna MMR".</p><p>"Nuestras escuelas a menudo trabajan directamente con proveedores de atención médica locales y organizan unidades móviles para visitar sus escuelas y ayudar a garantizar que los estudiantes, incluyendo los recién llegados, tengan acceso a la vacuna, conocida como una de las mejores herramientas para proteger a nuestros jóvenes de enfermedades infantiles graves. ”, dijo CPS en un comunicado el jueves por la noche.</p><p>El Departamento de Salud Pública de Chicago recomendó a todos los residentes del refugio de Pilsen en edad escolar que permanezcan en sus lugares y no asistan a la escuela desde el viernes anterior, mientras el departamento y CPS continúan "asegurando un proceso sólido que permita que solo los niños que son completamente inmunes puedan reanudar su asistencia a la escuela de manera segura".</p><p>De los 12 casos confirmados, 10 fueron reportados desde el interior del refugio para migrantes de Pilsen, según el departamento. Los dos estudiantes se encontraban entre los casos positivos previamente reportados por el CDPH. Ambos estaban en la escuela durante el período contagioso.</p><p>La semana pasada, el departamento confirmó los dos primeros casos de sarampión en la ciudad desde 2019.</p><p>Los síntomas del sarampión, un virus que se transmite por el aire, pueden incluir sarpullido, fiebre alta, tos, secreción nasal y ojos rojos y llorosos, dijeron los funcionarios de salud. Los síntomas pueden tardar de siete a 21 días en aparecer después de que una persona ha estado expuesta a alguien con sarampión.</p><p>El virus se transmite por contacto directo con gotitas infecciosas o por transmisión aérea cuando una persona infectada respira, tose o estornuda, según los Centros de Control y Prevención de Enfermedades. El virus del sarampión puede permanecer infeccioso en el aire hasta dos horas después de que una persona infectada abandona un área.</p>

<p>Chicago health officials announced Monday that residents at a migrant shelter in Pilsen should receive a second dose of the measles vaccine 28 days after the first shot. </p><p>The Chicago Department of Public Health said the new policy was necessary because of the continued increase in measles cases among young children at the Halsted Street shelter. The second dose will help protect preschool children until their immunity to measles is fully developed and will also help stop the spread to other children who haven't received a second dose of the shot. </p><p>The city has reported 26 <a class="Link" href="https://chicago.suntimes.com/news/2024/03/07/chicago-measles-outbreak-public-health-mmr-vaccination-cdc-disease" target="_blank" >measles cases</a>, 19 of which have been in children younger than 5. Most of the cases have been associated with the Pilsen migrant shelter. </p><div class="RelatedList Enhancement" data-module data-align-center>

<p>“While the MMR vaccine is the best protection against the virus, children are at highest risk for contracting breakthrough measles after receiving one dose of the vaccine, especially those less than 5 years old," said CDPH commissioner Olusimbo Ige. "We’re seeing some of these cases at the Halsted shelter, which isn’t surprising. I understand this will be a challenge for families, but we want to do everything to protect young children from contracting measles by ensuring 2 doses of the MMR vaccine.”</p><p>The policy was also extended to include children between 1 and 5 years old, health officials said. </p><p>Families at the shelter with children between ages 1 and 5 are asked to keep them home until 21 days after receiving the second dose of the vaccine, or 21 days after last exposure if they cannot be vaccinated. </p><p>The new policy will affect about 50 children at the shelter, health officials said. All eligible children have already received at least one dose of the vaccine. </p><p>Initial <a class="Link" href="https://www.cdc.gov/measles/symptoms/signs-symptoms.html" target="_blank" >symptoms</a> — such as high fever, cough, runny nose, and red or watery eyes — usually appear within a week or two of exposure to the virus, according to the CDC. A rash can appear three to five days after initial symptoms begin.</p><p>The "highly infectious" virus is <a class="Link" href="https://www.cdc.gov/measles/transmission.html#:~:text=Measles%20is%20so%20contagious%20that,days%20after%20the%20rash%20appears." target="_blank" >spread</a> through coughing, sneezing or contact with an infected person, and the virus can live for up to two hours in the air after an infected person has left a space, according to the CDC. Those with the virus can spread it up to four days before and after a rash appears, and 90% of people without immunity who are exposed to the virus become infected.</p><p>A Centers for Disease Control and Prevention team has been assisting the city in responding to the infections.</p><bsp-listcarousel class="PageListE" data-module data-column-count=4 data-hide-descriptions="true"

I've never had as many issues that I've had in the last six months.”</p><p>Ocampo proceeded to hug Lopez three times throughout his speech, detailing complaints he has had with the migrants in his neighborhood.</p><p>The Gage Park resident, who came to the U.S. at age 4, accuses migrants of smoking and drinking, taking up parking spots and receiving “handouts.” </p><p>“It's not because we're anti-immigrant; it’s because we are neighborhood oriented. We protect our neighborhood,” he said.</p><p>Others in the neighborhood aren’t celebrating yet. Juana Galon doesn’t believe that her community park will return to normal.</p><p>“If they don't have a job, they don't have a safe place to be. They will be here,” Galon said. </p><p>Ariana Avonce, 26, says she and other nearby residents are "skeptical" about the future for migrants. </p><p>“This is a step in the right direction. However, like I mentioned, we're still skeptical until we see results,” Avonce said. “I think it's important that we have this conversation about illegal immigration. Because yes, we might remove them from the field house, but then we're still gonna move them elsewhere and it's going to be another neighborhood's problem.”</p><p>Last weekend, residents in the Gage Park area <a class="Link" href="https://chicago.suntimes.com/immigration/2024/03/17/chicago-migrants-mayor-brandon-johnson-immigration-asylum-seekers-housing-evictions-city-hall" target="_blank" ><u>protested the continued sheltering</u></a> of migrants in the Gage Park field house, as Mayor Brandon Johnson’s <a class="Link" href="https://chicago.suntimes.com/immigration/2024/03/15/eviction-first-migrants-begin-sunday-families-shelters-get-reprieve" target="_blank" ><u>eviction plan</u></a> began.</p><p>Once the migrants have moved to other shelters, the park district will begin work making any repairs or doing maintenance, the mayor’s office said.</p><p>Park district facilities first became migrant shelters in May of 2023. Protests soon followed, though people in some communities reached out to support them.</p><p><a class="Link" href="https://chicago.suntimes.com/city-hall/2023/10/2/23900171/chicago-migrant-crisis-amundsen-park-field-house-shelter-taliaferro-youth-programs" target="_blank" ><u></u></a></p><p></p><p> “We as a community have opened our doors and our hearts to our new neighbors," said Ald.

</div><p>Since August 2022, Chicago has welcomed about 37,000 migrants, the majority from Venezuela. The city has outsourced the feeding operation and the food handling to several vendors.</p><p>And while city officials say they want these vendors to offer healthy, nutritious and culturally relevant meals, mixed reviews from migrants paint a different picture. Many newcomers say they will eat anything, but they often complain the food is old, cold or too spicy, according to formal complaints filed by shelter residents.</p><p>The city has paid about $31.3 million to feed migrants between August 2022 and February 2024, according to the city’s <a class="Link" href="https://www.chicago.gov/city/en/sites/texas-new-arrivals/home/cost-dashboard.html?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=newsletter_axioslocal_chicago&stream=top" target="_blank" ><u>dashboard</u></a>. In addition, the Greater Chicago Food Depository, using state and private funds, also has spent more than $17.6 million to feed migrants during much of that period.</p><p>In January, the city selected two new catering agencies, Seventy-Seven Communities and a group called 14 Parish, as the main caterers. The Food Depository had hoped to be chosen to continue providing food in shelters, but city officials said the two agencies offered better meal prices per person compared to what they said they were previously paying while still maintaining the food quality.</p><h3><b>Trying to offer nutritious, culturally relevant food</b></h3><p>Chicago’s food suppliers have learned many lessons about the tastes of people coming from South America.</p><p>“How do you create a menu that offers choice and dignity and all the needed components in a way that would be received?” asked Amy Laboy, vice president of programs and community partnerships for the Greater Chicago Food Depository.</p><p>The food bank provided meals for new arrivals for more than a year. Its involvement started when buses first started arriving from Texas, offering migrants food upon arrival and later at police stations that served as temporary shelters. By the end of 2023, the food bank was providing food to up to 21 shelters along with 17 mostly Black- and Latino-owned caterers it hired.</p><p>The depository provided about two million meals at around $6 to $8 per dish. About 18,000 daily meals came from vendors, and 2,000 meals were prepared in the food depository’s kitchen.</p><p>“We were definitely providing dishes that involved rice and chicken,” Laboy said. They delivered two hot meals per day, plus fruit, cereal, oatmeal, granola bars, milk and coffee for breakfast.</p><p>Laboy said throughout the process vendors gathered feedback from shelters and tweaked the menus based on people’s preferences.</p><p>“Lots of meetings, lots of phone calls, lots of strategy, lots of making sure that the vendors had capacity to do what they needed to do and that they had the information that they needed,” Laboy said.</p><p>Rhodel Castillo, the co-owner of <a class="Link" href="https://garifunaflava.net/" target="_blank" ><u>Garifuna Flava</u></a>, a Caribbean-style restaurant in the Chicago Lawn neighborhood, was one of the vendors hired by the food depository last summer.</p><p>But even for Castillo, who is Belizean and shares some cultural similarities with Venezuelans, there was a learning curve. Sometimes migrants were unfamiliar with certain dishes, so he tweaked his recipes. He came up with a basic barbecue sauce not on his regular menu.</p><p>“The basics was coconut rice, get some barbecue chicken, which they really, really love,” he said.</p><p>He spent time strategizing meal options and getting feedback from shelter staff if a particular dish wasn’t as popular. He focused on what migrants enjoyed.</p><p>“We bought several 100 pounds of rice for a week, several 100 pounds of beans per week,” Castillo said. “Tons and tons of fried plantains.” He said Venezuelans loved his Belizean brown-stew chicken.</p><p>He also learned that Venezuelans love mayo.</p><p>“Plenty of mayo, plenty of mayo, plenty of mayo,” Castillo said. “We were literally buying buckets and buckets of mayo.”</p><p>Ketchup on spaghetti is also popular.</p><h3><b>Food complaints among migrants</b></h3><p>In recent months, many migrants have lodged complaints through a grievance process about food in city-run shelters. They said the food tasted bad, was cold or there wasn’t enough offered. Some migrant families have said their children won’t eat the food if it includes too many unfamiliar condiments.</p><p>Laboy said it’s important to keep in mind the feeding mission involved a network of many partners who all had a different role to play.</p><p>“What it looked like for us, is making sure that we were providing two hot meals a day and that they were arriving just in time in a very food safe way,” Laboy said.</p><p>Once meals were delivered to the shelters, staff members hired by <a class="Link" href="https://www.wbez.org/stories/chicago-migrant-shelter-complaints-about-racist-remarks/238e50c9-fb48-432b-a510-53ced3d5ca05" target="_blank" ><u>a private Kansas-based company</u></a> were in charge of storing the meals and serving them based on instructions provided by the food vendors.</p><p>But some food vendors said kitchen staffers didn’t always follow instructions on how to store the food. They said there was a revolving door of shelter employees, and many were overworked. That situation made it difficult for food caterers to communicate with shelter staffers on how to handle food properly and get feedback or an accurate count of migrants at each shelter.</p><p>“Sometimes [staffers] didn’t really clean all that well,” said a restaurant owner who didn’t want to be identified.</p><p>Laboy said she learned there is a balance between wanting to offer nutritious food and offering what people are used to eating back home — whether those options are considered healthy or not.</p><p>“Individuals do want some burgers rotated into meals that they might have,” Laboy said. “But they absolutely would still want some of those more traditional dishes from home.”</p><p><i>Adriana Cardona-Maguigad covers immigration for WBEZ.

<p>Advocates say dozens of Chicago-area Lyft drivers who are working through the immigration process have stopped being paid by ride-hailing giant, which blames tax filing errors.</p><p>The Illinois Independent Drivers Guild says there are about 40 drivers in the Chicago area who have earned money — in some cases thousands of dollars — that has been withheld because Lyft says it received a “no match” letter from the IRS. That means their individual tax ID numbers don’t match records in the federal system.</p><p>But the issue is unique to Lyft, which allows workers with individual tax ID numbers and temporary licenses to drive, unlike its competitor Uber, which requires drivers to have a permanent license for at least a year, according to Lenny Sanchez, director of the guild representing ride-hailing drivers.</p><p>Sanchez called Lyft's withholding “nothing short of atrocious.”</p><p>“This is a community that is very vulnerable,” Sanchez said at a press conference at the group's Park Ridge office Friday. “These are immigrants coming here pursuing the American dream, doing honest work, and they deserve their honest pay.”</p><div class="Enhancement" data-align-center>

<p>As we’ve discussed before, the competition for scarce state dollars is particularly fierce this year in Springfield as various groups elbow each other for money while large surpluses and revenue increases start to dry up.</p><p>A poll taken by respected national Democratic pollster Normington Petts in late February of 700 registered Illinois voters purports to show which of those ideas has strong support and which do not.</p><p>The program with the most respondents saying they "strongly support" it was "Funding free breakfast and lunch to public school children in grades K through 12, regardless of income. This would cost Illinois about $200M." The poll found the idea had 64% overall support, with 39% they strongly supported it.</p><p>The poll was commissioned by a coalition called Healthy School Meals for All Kids, which is pushing for the free school food and was undoubtedly pleased with that result. Thirty-two percent said they opposed the idea, with 17% saying they strongly opposed feeding all kids at school.</p><p>Overall, the most-supported proposal was “Giving grants to businesses to provide jobs for young people over the summer to help reduce violence and provide job training in underserved communities. This would cost Illinois about $150M,” at 75%, with 31% registering strong support and just 19% opposed.</p><div class="RichTextSidebarModule Enhancement" data-module data-align-center><a class="AnchorLink" id="module-570000" name="module-570000"></a>

</div><p>The option of "Raising the pay of state-funded home health care workers from $20 an hour to $22. This would cost Illinois about $200M," came out at 68% support, with 35% strongly supporting it and 25% opposing it.</p><p>Next up was: "A tax credit of $300 per child for families making less than $75,000 a year, or $50,000 if the parent is single. This would cost Illinois about $300M," at 58% supporting and 35% opposing.</p><p>And it may not surprise you to know at the very bottom of the list was "Expanding the program that provides health insurance to undocumented seniors who would be eligible for Medicare if they were citizens. This would cost Illinois about $300M," which was opposed by 58% (40% strongly opposed) and supported by a minority of 33%. Proponents, however, said last week they don’t have dollar numbers for how much reopening the enrollment to the health insurance program would cost.</p><p>When asked to identify their top priority among those five programs, 34% of respondents said free meals in schools would be their top choice, which led the list. That was followed by summer youth job grants (20%). At the bottom was health insurance for undocumented seniors at only 6%.</p><p>The coalition did not supply the poll’s full cross tabs, but claimed in an accompanying memo that the free breakfast for all program had majority support across every region, age and partisan demographic.</p><p>Its strongest support was among Chicago voters (84%), Democrats (81%) and those 18-44 (74%). Its weakest support was among rural voters (50%-46%), those age 60+ (51%-46%) and Republicans (52%-44%). The coalition did not provide a breakout of those older than 65.</p><p>The pollster said the survey was a hybrid live interviewer landline, mobile, text-to-web and online panel survey conducted among 700 registered voters in Illinois from Feb. 21-26. The margin of error was ±3.7%. Party affiliation was 37% Democrat, 37% Independent and 26% Republican.</p><p>While we’re talking about polling results, let’s revisit a column I wrote in late 2022.</p><p>When Normington Petts asked those same respondents, "What is the single most important problem facing you and your household today?" the top category was "cost of living" at 49%. Crime was the No. 1 issue for just 8% and immigration came in at just 5%.</p><p>The Normington Petts poll also found that 27% of Illinoisans thought the state was heading in the right direction, while 60% said it was on the wrong track.</p><p>Another recently released poll, taken for the Illinois Education Association by Normington Petts and Republican pollster Next Generation Strategies in late January, found that 32% said the state was on the right track and 58% said it was on the wrong track.</p><p>While those results were much better than they were before Gov. J.B. Pritzker took office (the state bottomed out at a 9% right direction and an 84% wrong track in 2018), the results have dropped way down from a high of 52%-48% in an Emerson College poll conducted in October 2022, which we discussed at the time.</p><p><i>Rich Miller also publishes Capitol Fax, a daily political newsletter, and CapitolFax.com.</i></p><p><i>Send letters to </i><a class="Link" href="mailto:letters@suntimes.com" target="_blank" ><i>letters@suntimes.com</i></a><i>.</i><br></p>

</figure>
<p>A young resident of the largest shelter for newly arrived migrants in Chicago was recently diagnosed with measles, pushing our rightfully concerned city into action.</p><p>Within 16 hours, the Chicago Department of Public Health brought together a team of vaccinators, screeners and health care providers to verify the vaccine status of the nearly 1,900 shelter residents and vaccinate those without proof of vaccination. Nearly all the shelter residents were vaccinated by the end of the weekend.</p><p>University of Illinois Chicago’s outbreak response team, which we co-lead, is part of the response.

</div><p>The MMR vaccine for measles, mumps and rubella is a real workhorse. <a class="Link" href="https://www.si.edu/spotlight/antibody-initiative/mmr" target="_blank" >Developed in 1971</a>, the two doses given at 12 to 15 months of age and again at age 4 to 6 years, provide high levels of lifetime immunity for a lifetime against these diseases that used to cause serious illness and death.</p><p>Worldwide, vaccination with measles has averted <a class="Link" href="https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/72/wr/mm7245a2.htm" target="_blank" >over 57 million deaths </a>in the past two decades. The historic low in global child mortality announced this week by the <a class="Link" href="https://childmortality.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/UNIGME-2023-Child-Mortality-Report.pdf" target="_blank" >United Nations Inter-agency Group for Child Mortality Estimation</a> is partially due to the work of this vaccine, as well as others.</p><p>In 2000, the U.S. <a class="Link" href="https://www.si.edu/spotlight/antibody-initiative/mmr" target="_blank" >eliminated measles</a>, for a brief time. To reach that goal again, we need to achieve 95% vaccine coverage so those of us who are vaccinated provide herd immunity for those too young to get vaccinated or those rare folks with a serious illness that renders vaccines ineffective.</p><p>In the U.S., the <a class="Link" href="https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/article-abstract/2769677" target="_blank" >majority of unvaccinated people</a> are those who refuse to get vaccinated due to their personal beliefs, leaving room for the virus to take hold and spread to those who are not yet fully vaccinated. <a class="Link" href="https://www.cdc.gov/measles/cases-outbreaks.html" target="_blank" >According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention</a>, most cases in the U.S. are a result of international travel by unvaccinated people who bring it home. And, there is always a potential for further spread in pockets of unvaccinated people here.</p><p>The COVID-19 global pandemic resulted in many <a class="Link" href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10010823/" target="_blank" >missing vaccine doses</a> due to a lack of accessible care and interruptions in vaccine distribution. At the end of 2022, the <a class="Link" href="https://www.who.int/news/item/23-11-2022-nearly-40-million-children-are-dangerously-susceptible-to-growing-measles-threat" target="_blank" >World Health Organization</a> estimated that 40 million children worldwide had missed a dose of the measles vaccine. We are still working here and abroad to catch up to our pre-pandemic rates.</p><p>Outside the U.S., political instability, economic insecurity and corruption negatively impact health infrastructure, resulting in lower vaccination rates. Venezuela, where most of the migrants come from, used to have relatively high vaccination rates but, due to instability, <a class="Link" href="https://apnews.com/article/covid-health-venezuela-public-caribbean-93dced67f765654da6d616b534377566" target="_blank" >vaccination rates have plummeted</a> and <a class="Link" href="https://www.who.int/data/gho/data/indicators/indicator-details/GHO/measles---number-of-reported-cases" target="_blank" >measles cases have increased</a>. The same forces pushing people to come to the U.S. in search of a better life have resulted in the new arrivals being left susceptible to contracting measles during this outbreak.</p><p>While the causes leading to reduced vaccination rates are a complex mix of individual beliefs and systemic failures, and the results severe — including an outbreak of a serious disease — we know what to do to prevent future outbreaks. We need to offer vaccines to all new arrivals to the U.S. at ports of entry. And we need to convince those already living here to join us to achieve 95% vaccination rates and get our measles-free status again.</p><p><i>Rebecca Singer is a registered nurse and clinical assistant professor at University of Illinois Chicago College of Nursing and a Public Voices fellow of </i><a class="Link" href="https://www.theopedproject.org/" target="_blank" ><i>The OpEd Project</i></a><i>.

<p>A $100,000 donation to the Instituto del Progreso Latino will help the nonprofit continue providing rental assistance to migrants.</p><p>"We partnered with Instituto because we wanted to make a difference by getting new arrivals out of the city shelters and on a pathway to self-sufficiency," said David Fish, a lawyer who made the donation, at a news conference Wednesday.</p><p>The Instituto, which serves Latino immigrants and their families in Chicago, began helping new arrivals in May 2023 through its Project AMOR (Asylum Migrant Outreach Response) initiative, said Emmanuel Mandujano, the director of career pathways and student support service at Instituto.</p><div class="RelatedList Enhancement" data-module data-align-center>
