Spent my morning on the phone with a mom whose son is incarcerated at Chuckawalla. From the time she learned from him about the first case until weeks later when he himself showed symptoms & tested positive for #COVID.
It& #39;s been over a week since his positive test. Him and the positive patients around him are living in an open dorm setting. He& #39;s going to work. He& #39;s fainted. He& #39;s yet to see a doctor.
The first case is said to have spread from the kitchen, where incarcerated people showing symptoms are still being sent to work there & tasked with feeding the prison.
"I would drive 5 hours to the prison if they would just let me give my son a box of orange juice".
Getting in touch with anyone at the prison to check on the status of her son& #39;s health has been impossible. Every number she calls she is told to call a different number. And every night she waits for him to call & hopes that he does.
