Dynamic diagnosis

In this section you can take a look at the results of the dynamic diagnosis we carried out on the impact of the pandemic and the measures taken by the General Secretariat of Penitentiary Institutions (which manages all the state prisons, except those in Catalonia), to reduce its impact.

On the one hand, we wanted to show from a quantitative point of view the number of positive cases and deaths among prisoners and workers, which can be seen in the dynamic graph.

On the other hand, we wanted to analyze from a qualitative point of view the consequences that the pandemic and the measures adopted by the administration had in relation to certain aspects such as prisoners' communications with the outside world, the quarantine/isolation regime, access to justice, health services, reintegration, labor or educational activities, and the reduction of the prison population. This information can be consulted in the different reports we published in different periods of evaluation of the pandemic from the first State of Alarm (March 2020) until the end of the last one, in May 2021.
