Prison health care: Population explosion

Article Abstract:

The national prison inmate population is nearly six times more as compared to the number in 1972, outpacing the overall population growth, and the steady increase in the U.S. prison population has resulted in overcrowded facilities. Prison health care has also become more expensive as diseases like HIV/AIDS and antibiotic-resistant tuberculosis have developed, the incidence of chronic ills like diabetes has increased, and health care for mentally ill and lower income group has continued to decline in quality and availability.

The sex education program works

Article Abstract:

The National Adolescent Sexuality Training Center at Children's Aid is ineligible for federal funding as it instructs teens in the importance of condoms and birth control and also provides contraceptives as part of its comprehensive package of medical and dental services. The program has not a single HIV case in its 20 years and the rate of other sexually transmitted diseases is not evaluated.
