VISITING HAS BEEN CANCELLED for this coming SATURDAY, May 24th, due to TB testing. VISITS WILL RESUME SUNDAY, May 25th!

spideriixs...it probably goes without saying... April 24(cancelled), April 25(resume)...correct? Is TB testing (with visiting cancelled) the norm, or are they looking at an outbreak in Chino? Thanks for the info.

Thats good info isn't it! I just thought they were tested when they entered!

Is this just Chino or all facilities? Does anyone know?

Not all prisons are on the same schedule... this info is just for Chino! But yes, all the prisons will be doing the TB Testing. With the conditions they way they are in prison... it's about time they got around to this. As far as an outbreak? No, not really... but at one time, TB was considered "cured" in the US... so in my eyes... even one case is way too many! TB is highly contagious... and with the prisons being overcrowded... plus all the transfers... they are finding quite a few cases of it. But then again... we all know prisons are breeding grounds for germs, bacteria, etc.

So.... NO VISITS SATURDAY.... but you CAN VISIT SUNDAY! See ya all there on Sunday!!
