Heading into Christmas and the new year, this installment of âPandemic Lessonsâ brings you advice from top scientists on how to keep your indoor spaces safe:
From an epidemiological perspective, COVID-19 vaccination of incarcerated and detained individuals is an efficient public health strategy and must be prioritized. Social distancing is impossible for individuals who are living in crowded conditions. Crowding, combined with reduced access to critical public health tools, including personal protective equipment and testing, has resulted in a rate of infection in state and federal prisons that is 5.5 times higher than that in the general population, according to a recent study in JAMA.
Additionally, according to data from the U.S. Department of Justice, about 40% of those in U.S. prisons and jails have a chronic medical condition, such as hypertension, asthma, and diabetes, which makes them vulnerable to worse COVID-19 outcomes, including death.
