The panel reversed the district court’s grant of a preliminary injunction in a class action in which plaintiffs contended that as to all immigration detention facilities nationwide, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s directives in response to the COVID-19 pandemic reflected “deliberate indifference” to medical needs and “reckless disregard” of known health risks; and remanded with instructions that all orders premised on the preliminary injunction be vacated.
