IAS faculty member Dan Berger appeared on the Death Panel, a podcast about the political economy of health, to discuss the pandemic in prisons, jails, and detention centers. Death Panel interviewed Berger about his 2020 articles on the poor healthcare infrastructure for incarcerated people, the protests by incarcerated people demanding covid protocols, and the need for decarceration. They discussed what has and has not changed for incarcerated people since the start of the pandemic and how the carceral system runs counter to public health.
