Cleaning Supplies Denied in TX Prison as 200 Sick

There has been over the past several months here lockdowns under the name quarantine. Over 200 people (prisoners and guards) have been confirmed sick and just yesterday our living section was divided 1 section well, 2 section well, 3 section sick. The sick and the non-sick are being housed together in an effort to get us all sick so the unit can get extra money to treat us that they have and has put into their pockets.

About a month ago, a guard showed up to our cells early in the morning with a back pack full of lights and buttons and a hose gun that produced a vapor that the guards called vitrol or some such nonsense that they claimed killed all virus. Well, it didn’t work obviously and while on this “quarantine” we are only allowed to purchase certain correspondence items and the only cleaning items we are allowed to buy is one bottle of shampoo and five small bars of soap. With all the sickness you would think the guards would want us to clean but they don’t. They just want us sick. We are not even allowed to make outside purchases.
