So prisons can do whatever elective surgeries they like on their inmates? Why not do lobotomy on trouble prisoners? Sterilize all prisoners to avoid new pregnancies? Tattoo their prison number on them? Prisons could get some extra revenue by signing their inmates up for dangerous medical trials that drug companies are having issues recruiting for?
Dystopian.

- 2OEH8eoCRo0 4y agoA medical specialist recommended it.
- advisedwang 4y agoFirst of all: so what? People still have a right to decide whether or not to do a surgery regardless of whether a "specialist" recommends it. Prisoners still have rights. Second of all: That was the reason according to the PR folks for the successor company to the private medical company that did this. Companies that are answerable to the prison. A PR person who also said "any decision to induce is solely the patient’s choice" which was clearly not the case here. Even if it is true, that specialist is following policies and priorities of the prison and company.
