Questions:

2. Discuss the implications of compassionate release, which is a policy that allows people with terminal illnesses to be released from prison before their sentences are served.

3. The article discusses the role of clinicians, correctional health systems, and community health systems in improving public health in this vulnerable population. Which action discussed do you think will make the biggest public health impact?
