WHO/Europe | WHO/Europe shows high rates of COVID-19 vaccination in prisons

16-07-2021 New WHO data helps to improve COVID-19 vaccination policies in prisons Prisons need to be a priority for vaccination roll-out. New data from the WHO Health in Prisons European Database (HIPED) shows that COVID-19 vaccination of people living and working in prisons is increasing. For example, in Spain, 100% of healthcare workers in prisons are vaccinated against COVID-19. However, there is still a long way to go to full vaccination coverage in detention facilities. “It is encouraging to see that COVID-19 vaccination rates in prisons are increasing,” said Dr Hans Henri P. Kluge, WHO Regional Director for Europe. “Detention facilities have always been vulnerable in the face of epidemics and infections. So, when protecting people living and working in prisons, Member States are wisely ensuring that health protection leaves no one behind.”
