Crazily enough I actually haven''t heard a thing about COVID-19 and the prison system, I guess they do also have a less chance of getting in then everyday pepople cause the only way they'd get it is from a guard, other prison staff, or visitor. The other prisoners aren't ya know, allowed to move freely. But once it does get to the prison, as it will, it'll be hard to stop.

The story you reference I'm pretty sure about prisons around the world is this one - https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2020/mar/24/hundreds-of-nsw-prisoners-could-be-released-early-under-covid-19-emergency-powers

Thousands of prisoners for non violent crimes are being released across the US to combat this - https://www.wsj.com/articles/jails-release-prisoners-fearing-coronavirus-outbreak-11584885600

Lol are you crazy? Is it not enough that prisons are run on people’s taxes? You are going to spend even more money into them. For what? It is unlikely that anyone will regret the death of a murderer, pedophile, rapist, thief, and so on. Especially, if we are talking about persons with life imprisonments. You need to do a lot of bad things to deserve it.
We need to take care of free people instead. There are a lot of troubles outside the prisons

Some inmates that have minor cases are being released in some advanced countries. while in Africa nobody cares about the prisoners if the virus will affect or kill them, not minding that they are also our loved ones trapped behind walls, who need help, because the virus has no boundaries,  I read about prisons in the amazon deriving funds from inmates to pay $4 for treatment or checkup before they will be issued with hand sanitizers and facemasks, but the government is supposed to make free provisions for them because they labour too with their sweat and energy.
We should'nt forget the prisoners they are human beings serving capital punishments. What could be the best healthcare provision for the prisoners?
