NY prisons see spike in COVID cases: 'They're not forgotten souls'


Locked up in a coronavirus-stricken prison, Claude Johnson was concerned about his health if his parole was denied again.
After spending more than three decades behind bars, the 60-year-old was dealing with the death of a good friend of COVID-19 at another prison. Johnson had witnessed the near impossibility of social distancing at the Fishkill Correctional Facility in Dutchess County and the lack of protective gear given to an imprisoned individual as he nursed himself back to health after dealing with a likely case. 
“I was concerned for my own self,” he said. “I was to the point where I felt like when I went to the parole board in October of 2020, I was saying, ‘If I don’t get granted parole, there’s a possibility that I may die in prison due to COVID-19.   ....

Spike in Prison COVID Rates Prompts Calls for More Testing, Vaccinations, PPE Use & Inmate Releases

Prisons are hotspots for COVID-19, and criminal justice advocates are calling for reform to minimize ongoing spread.
The Department of Corrections and Community Supervision (DOCCS) only recently began testing asymptomatic prisoners. Horwitz explains how this change in testing revealed the drastic increase.
“The sudden increase as a result of this change validates what we have been warning about for months, which is that these infections are going unchecked, undocumented and untreated in DOCCS facilities.  And that is a totally unacceptable outcome.”
