A national commission on COVID-19 is calling for prison inmates and guards to be prioritized in the vaccine rollout

reported in California around 26,000 inmates or one-in-four prisoners have already been infected with COVID-19. Also, 12.7% of prison inmates across the country have confirmed COVID-19 cases.

The American Medical Association has also called for inmates and those who work in prisons or correctional facilities to be prioritized in the vaccine rollout since jails and prisons cannot adequately implement measures to prevent the spread of the virus.
