Implementation of rapid COVID-19 testing at Massachusetts trial courts.

Background: COVID-19 shut down trial courts across the country, prolonging case resolution of charged, detained, and incarcerated people. We report on the implementation of rapid COVID-19 testing at Trial Courts in Massachusetts (MA), focusing on the outcomes of adoption and acceptability.

Methods: Guided by the Expert Recommendations in Implementing Change (ERIC) framework, we chose six strategies to guide implementation.

Cervical Cancer Screening and Follow-Up Practices in U.S. Prisons.

Introduction: The objective of this study is to better understand cervical cancer screening and follow-up practices in U.S. prisons.

Infectious disease surveillance in U.S. jails: Findings from a national survey.

While infectious diseases (ID) are a well-documented public health issue in carceral settings, research on ID screening and treatment in jails is lacking. A survey was sent to 1,126 jails in the United States to identify the prevalence of health screenings at intake and characteristics of care for ID; 371 surveys were completed correctly and analyzed. Despite conflicting Centers for Disease Control (CDC) guidance, only seven percent of surveyed jails test individuals for HIV at admission.
