In his new book Outbreak Behind Bars: Spider Bites, Human Rights, and the Unseen Danger to Public Health, physician and epidemiologist Dr. Homer Venters reveals the grave reality of how infections and diseases spread in correctional facilities, which are often overcrowded and unsanitary. Detailing first-hand accounts of the spread of tuberculosis, MRSA, and other infections, he shines a light on the critical need to improve health care behind bars.
Venters was the chief medical officer of the New York City jail system and is currently a federal monitor of health services in jails and prisons.
Listen to him in conversation with Dr. Josy Hahn, senior research fellow, manager, and social epidemiologist in the Brennan Center’s Justice Program.
Recorded on July 28, 2025.
