Prisons have not escaped the effects of COVID-19. In countries where there are limited resources and spaces available, there is a need to find innovative ways to keep detainees safe and healthy. We can see various approaches such as the Irish model, which gives due importance to the establishment of contact tracing teams (CTT). In the case of Philippine prisons with high congestion rates, however, we may have to go back to certain healthcare basics to address COVID-19 transmissions.
监狱也未能免受新冠疫情的影响。在资源和空间有限的国家，需要寻找创新的方法来确保被拘留者的安全和健康。我们可以看到各种方法，例如爱尔兰模式，该模式充分重视建立接触者追踪小组（CTT）。然而，对于菲律宾这种人口高度密集的监狱，我们可能不得不回到某些基本的医疗保健措施来应对新冠病毒的传播。
