I’m glad we’re starting to get into the detail planning stage, but I would love to see prisons added to the list of early groups. They check every box as high risk, high rates of spread, lots of elderly and people with preexisting conditions, inability to distance, and for those unmoved by basic humanitarian concerns the state pays for the healthcare of inmates that get infected. For a while two of the five largest outbreaks in the country were Ohio prisons, with upwards of 3/4 of residents testing positive (note not 3/4 of tests, 3/4 of the people).
