Test ALL Ohio Prison Inmates and Essential Staff
Inmates and staff of Ohio prison system have not received COVID-19/Coronavirus testing unless they have a fever or other underlying systems. It has been proven that not all persons who test positive have a fever. We are calling on The Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction to test all inmates and essential staff at State and Private Ohio Corrections facilities. All staff should also have to have their temperature taken upon entrance into any and all Ohio corrections facilities. Inmates should be supplied masks and hand sanitizer.
Why is this important?
This is important to curve the amount of staff and inmates from contracting the virus. This is important to save lives. The inmates live in close quarters and congregate within close proximity therefore it would be almost impossible to socially distance while incarcerated.
