Additions for Infectious Diseases within American Prisons

Hello,

I'm interested in adding content to the Infectious Diseases within American Prisons. Specifically I'd like to add information about testing for HIV, syphilis and Hepatitis C in jails and prisons. I'd like to add information about the costs and barriers for Hepatitis C testing in correctional settings.

I'm currently a graduate student at the Harvard Kennedy School's Mid-Career MPA program and I have 25 years of experience with the CDC and have implemented HIV, syphilis and HCV testing programs at the state level.
