Healthcare services in refugee camps along the Thailand-Myanmar border run by the International Rescue Committee (IRC) were suspended on 27 January 2025, following an order from the new United States (US) President, Donald Trump. The IRC is the main healthcare provider in the refugee camps housing refugees from Myanmar in Thailand on the border with Myanmar. The IRC gets about half of its funding from the US government and part of its work is to help resettle refugees in the US.

    So it’s concentration camps. They’ll soon make them work themselves to death.

      No, these camps are outside the USA. The concentration camps are domestic.

      I’ve seen somewhere that work makes you free so making the refugees work would be a good thing!

      I can’t remember where I saw that though…
