Colorado public health investigators have been trying since June to determine who was exposed to tuberculosis at an immigration detention center in Aurora. Six weeks after their last contact with the company running the facility, they still cannot answer that question.
The Adams County Health Department confirmed a laboratory-confirmed case of active tuberculosis at the GEO Aurora ICE Processing Center in early June and issued a public health order on June 25 directing the operator to provide medical records, identify exposures and allow investigators to interview the patient.
