Into an Outbreak Behind Bars | Into America Podcast – Ep. 7 | NBC News and MSNBC

Prisons are the hotbeds of infection. People live in close quarters, where they often struggle to have access to soap and hot water. As COVID-19 sweeps the country, these men and women are doing everything they can to avoid getting sick. In this episode of Into America, host Trymaine Lee talks to a Colorado woman who is struggling to stay in touch with her incarcerated husband as the outbreak intensifies. And Dateline NBC producer Dan Slepian takes us inside Sing Sing Correctional Facility to meet JJ Velazquez, who describes how social dynamics inside prison are changing as fears of an outbreak grow. https://link.chtbl.com/gyRBON0d?sid=ep7
