Constructed to maximize public safety, not to minimize transmission of disease

Pathogen transmission facilitated by over-crowding, budget cuts, etc

Rapid turnover of prison population complicates identification & treatment of disease resulting in the possible increased infections of prison populations

◦ Cleaning, Disinfecting & Hand Hygiene is not enougho “Bleach does not eliminate mold or mildew on wood &

other porous surfaces” Oregon State University “Study Impact of Bleach on Mold Growth”

o “MRSA can be cultured from toilet seats representing a potential risk to inmates and staff…” Mary Anne Glannini, Infection Control Officer

o “MRSA can live on fabrics and hard surfaces for up to 90 days.” Journal of Clinical Microbiology
