Diamond Princess had a far higher percentage of older (over 70) people. I also would like to know if the HVAC system is as centralize in a prison as it is on a cruise ship.
- vkou 6y agoHVAC is not the problem. The problem is that prisoners routinely share common spaces. It doesn't matter how the air circulates, when they all cook, eat, work, shower, and exercise in the exact same communal rooms. Combine that with insufficient sanitation, and it's a miracle that only half of them got sick.
- RandallBrown 6y agoCruise ships are pretty similar in that people are eating and recreating in the same areas.

- vkou 6y agoI agree that HVAC can cause spread. My point is that prison life does not allow for social distancing, and that the HVAC is irrelevant when everyone is living in essentially the same space.
