Topic: Emerging Trends

Paper details:

The problem of additional health-related diseases will arise in the prison system. There will be more HIV, more tuberculosis, and other communicable diseases. Pick a position on the question of mapping inmates for genetic predisposition to a specific disease and whether inmates should have the same rights in regard to this topic as the general public.

Within the Discussion Board area, write up to 3 paragraphs that respond to the following questions with your thoughts, ideas, and comments. Be substantive and clear, and use examples to reinforce your ideas:

Should the prison system also map inmates that have these types of diseases?
The general public has raised an outcry about insurance companies that follow persons who may have a genetic predisposition to a specific disease stating that it would violate their constitutional rights. Should the prisoners also have these rights? Why or why not?
What reasons might correctional institutions have to map these inmates?
