600+ Coronavirus cases at Cummins Prison
In Ohio, officials said that at least 1,828 inmates — almost three-quarters of the population — had tested positive for the coronavirus at the minimum- and medium-security prison in Marion, Ohio.
While there are probably some folks who won't lose sleep over criminals getting sick, what scares me the most is how this might relate to college dorms. Students sleep, eat, and go to classes in close proximity. It certainly is not the same as a prison, but there are, at least, some similarities. Can college administrators really take the chance of having a somewhat similar outbreak on campus? I think we still have a lot to learn about this virus, before a decision is made, and having only tested 1% of the US population, at this point, is beyond belief. We have absolutely no idea how many people in the country are actually infected or have survived being infected. It's really hard to believe how incompetent, what I always believed to be the greatest country on earth, has been during this crisis.
