Incarcerated people are 3X more likely to die from #Covid_19 and 7X more likely to contract the virus, they cannot self-isolate, socially distance, or look after their own health care....NONE were sentenced to die from COVID
Please clarify, will EVERY ADULT have access?
Here are the numbers from a week ago:
So just did a back of the envelope calculation - BOP says they update their vaccination stats daily and it seems like they have 12,223 out of 124,679 vaccinated bop.gov/coronavirus/
Homicide and Domestic Violence rates are indeed up, and have been since the beginning of the pandemic
When you hear law enforcement sources saying it is b/c of bail...or other reforms, please ask them for their evidence
I follow this stuff pretty closely 1/
1. The increase in homicides has been nearly universal across most U.S. cities while court practices in each state were wildly disparate - which means attributing the cause to unique changes in one jurisdiction is almost always NONSENSE
2. Crime and violent crime overall are DOWN not UP....Homicide and Domestic Violence in major cities is up...which is certainly problematic.....but we should actually know what we are fighting before we "crack down" based on law enforcement suspicions
For those who don't know, Michigan is vaccinating people in prison over 65 currently, about 4k have been vaccinated.
But according to the CDC, everyone in prison is at high-risk and should be prioritized
People in prison cannot self-isolate, cannot socially distance, and cannot look over their own health care needs....here is a very strong article making the moral and substantive case for vaccinations in New York
Look back, I said - since the beginning - people should steer far clear of the Lincoln Project, that it was a grift and that it would most likely be used to elect moderate GOP in the future
Now, I did not predict this awfulness.....but, I knew they were not actually allies
But a lot of people got mad at me for saying they weren't actually allies.
