Despite growing national awareness that COVID-19 in jails and prisons constitutes a public health emergency in the United States, remarkably little attention has been paid to understanding how the virus affects people under community supervision. We used data from the National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH) to explore differences in the extent to which men under community supervision are vulnerable to COVID-19 and have access to care during the pandemic, relative to men who are not involved with the U.S. criminal legal system. Results from this study highlight the greater levels of risk for serious illness or death from COVID-19 and the disproportionate lack of health insurance among men under community supervision.

社区监督人群中 COVID-19 的风险和影响

尽管越来越多的国家意识到监狱和监狱中的 COVID-19 在美国构成公共卫生紧急事件，但对于了解该病毒如何影响社区监督下的人们的关注却非常少。我们使用来自全国药物使用和健康调查 (NSDUH) 的数据来探讨社区监督下的男性在大流行期间易感染 COVID-19 和获得护理的程度的差异，相对于未参与的男性美国刑事法律制度。这项研究的结果强调了 COVID-19 导致严重疾病或死亡的风险更高，并且在社区监督下的男性中不成比例地缺乏健康保险。
