HSH just made public that the first person at a homeless shelter or navigation center tested positive for COVID-19. He is in “good condition.” Unclear how many other people may be exposed. They should have been out of those crowded environments, and into hotel rooms weeks ago.

This was an issue years if not decades in the making. Rooms and beds are typically not the issue. Compliancy is the problem. There is a significant percentage of the homeless population that refuse services no matter what the situation. Do we force them to shelter?

We have thousands of people waiting in crowded shelters or navigation centers or on the street wanting to be inside in hotel rooms during this epidemic.

Time to consider ending mass incarceration. There are other forms of punishment. Extremely dangerous people would obviously still need to be incarcerated.

The vast majority, I have heard
@chesaboudin comment 85% of those incarcerated are mentally ill. We need mental hospitals, public health and public safety is proving a horrible substitute.2 replies 0 retweets 0 likes
