Dr. Luke Smith drove slowly through the unlit streets of a neighborhood in Durham, North Carolina, that's filled with immigrants, searching for an address among small houses with windows ribbed by iron bars. Pharmacy bags lay at his feet. His mission: to deliver medication to patients too frightened to pick up their prescriptions. Shaken by the Trump administration’s broad deportation orders, immigrants are retreating into the shadows, forgoing screenings, medications and other essential medical care. And so several times a week, Dr. Smith picks up prescriptions at pharmacies, then hand-delivers patients the medications they require. “I can’t have my patients taking risks to get medicine I prescribe for them,” he explained. Elizabeth, photographed here by @mikirbysmith, says she leaves her apartment these days only to go to the grocery store and to her job as a hotel maid. The 27-year-old, who is here illegally, has no one who will care for her 2 young children if she is deported, she told @nytimes during a recent interview at El Futuro, Dr. Smith’s mental health clinic. And in Mexico, another danger awaits: her ex-boyfriend. Years ago, she said, he beat her so badly that she finally called the police. He was arrested and deported. Now, fearful for her children and for her own safety, Elizabeth is consumed by anxiety. But she said coming back to the clinic seemed too risky.
