People who are incarcerated are people. Close proximities and conditions in Connecticut prisons and jails have left them in harm’s way from COVID-19. CT's COVID-19 vaccine rollout must include incarcerated people in the same tier as all others in congregate living facilities.
.@GovNedLamont must ensure CT's vaccine rollout does not discriminate against people based on which type of congregate facility they are in.
His response must be based on public health evidence that shows prisons & jails are among the least healthy places during this pandemic.
Any decision the Lamont administration makes regarding vaccination rollout in the Department of Correction also disproportionately affects the lives of people of color, as systemic racism has made Connecticut’s prisons and jails 70% Black and Latino.
We call on Governor Lamont to explicitly include incarcerated people in the congregate living tier of his vaccination plan during his Thursday vaccine rollout announcement.https://www.acluct.org/en/press-releases/connecticut-vaccine-rollout-must-include-incarcerated-people …
As the number of COVID-19 cases has risen in Connecticut in November, the population rate of new cases in the Connecticut DOC has been higher than the rate in Connecticut’s overall population.
During the month of November, there have been 257 new infections in the month of November in DOC prisons and jails, representing 2.78% of people incarcerated, according to the DOC’s self-reported numbers.
According to data reported by the CT Department of Health, in November, there were 46,088 new cases of COVID-19 infections in CT, representing approximately 1.25% of the state’s overall population. There were 461 new infections in nursing homes, 2.56% of occupied beds.
Connecticut's COVID-19 vaccine rollout plan must value the lives of incarcerated people, 70% of whom are Black and Latino, by treating them equally to all other people living in congregate living settings.
