COVID in Institutions
Today's episode is all about COVID-19 and how it is affecting those in institutions. We hear from Nicole DuRose as well as Becka Herbig from dLCV and they share with us all about how COVID-19 is affecting people in state hospitals and in jails. While dLCV does have access to reports and records that the general public does not, the Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Services has a very up to date and informative home page all about COVID-19, which you can find http://www.dbhds.virginia.gov/covid19. The Department of Corrections also has a very accurate and up to date webpage here: https://vadoc.virginia.gov/news-press-releases/2020/covid-19-updates/. This page is for prisons in Virginia, as jails do not fall under the Department of Corrections but each jail has their own webpage. View the Full episode transcriptions.
