美国最高法院驳回了加州惩教官员的上诉,他们寻求免于因 2020 年处理圣昆廷监狱致命的 COVID-19 疫情而提起的诉讼。 The US Supreme Court has denied an appeal from California correctional officials seeking immunity from lawsuits over their handling of a deadly COVID-19 outbreak at San Quentin prison in 2020. 此次疫情因感染囚犯转移不当而起,导致 28 名囚犯和 1 名狱警死亡。 The outbreak resulted from a botched transfer of infected inmates, leading to the deaths of 28 inmates and a correctional officer. 加州目前面临四起诉讼,诉讼一方是死者亲属,另一方是幸存的受感染囚犯和工作人员。 California now faces four lawsuits from the relatives of those who died, as well as from infected inmates and staff who survived.
