Are Our Prisons Ready for COVID-19?
Dear Mckoy
I have been reading and hearing different strategies being put in place to combat the COVID-19, however, I have not heard any mention being made for the prison system.
I read an article where a prison guard from one of those foreign countries was tested positive for the virus, then it hit me with the question; “are Jamaica’s prison system prepared for this virus”?
At this moment, I really hope the powers that be have implemented systems because thinking about the overcrowding at our prisons, this would be devastating.
