A call for accuracy and safety

Imagine it: A family member or friend is confined to a building where people have died of COVID-19, other residents and staff have been sickened, there’s no reliably accurate data about the virus spread, and the landlord is insisting that the number of building occupants must be thinned. That is the scenario within the Pennsylvania prison system. The Department of Corrections has acknowledged it has been releasing flawed data about the novel.

The Impact of Covid-19 Inside of the Pennsylvania Prison System

The Impact of Covid-19 Inside of the Pennsylvania Prison System by Gregory Muhammad Prison is the darkest place on our planet. It is also the loneliest in terms of being separated from family members and friends.

Confronted with significant flaws in coronavirus data, Pa corrections officials concede it s unacceptable | PA Power and Policy: Pennsylvania State News

. HARRISBURG — The Department of Corrections is reporting flawed data to keep inmates, families, and public officials informed about COVID-19 in its prisons, raising questions about the agency’s ability to accurately track the extent of the outbreak. A five-month analysis of prison data by Spotlight PA found large fluctuations in the number of tests administered and unexplained changes to the death count. The findings were confirmed by a California researcher who was also tracking the department’s data and had noticed problems. “It’s one thing to have little mistakes here and there, but if it’s month after month that there’s many data reporting problems, it definitely causes me pause,” said Hope Johnson, a data fellow at UCLA’s COVID Behind Bars Project, which tracks COVID-19 infections in prisons nationwide.
