Hundreds of migrants have already accepted free flights home rather than stay longer in the filth-strewn sports complex that has become their temporary home in Tijuana, Mexico. Lice and respiratory infections are becoming endemic inside the Benito Juarez sports complex and health workers warn that it's a matter of 'when not if' an outbreak of serious disease sweeps the scruffy labyrinth of tents and tarps sheltering an estimated 6,000 people. Tijuana's Health Department revealed on Thursday that many are suffering from tuberculosis, chickenpox, and other skin infections. So far, there have been three confirmed cases of tuberculosis, four of chickenpox, and four cases of HIV/AIDS.
