According to a recent report from the border, thousands of migrants who are part of the caravan have been treated in Tijuana, Mexico for infectious diseases, including HIV/AIDS.

The Daily Caller reports a spokesperson from Tijuana’s health department confirmed that more than 2,200 migrants received treatment for a variety of complaints including respiratory infections, TB, hepatitis, and HIV/AIDS. 

This comes as many in the caravan are complaining of overcrowded and unsanitary conditions at the border and some are turning on the organizers.

One reporter said a migrant from Honduras told him that he “feels he was lied to by the organizers from the beginning and is worried they are reaching a breaking point.”
