The law does not recognize a separate standard of care for prisoners; the community standard of care governs. Their incarceration makes them dependent on the state for all medical care.
Estelle v. Gamble, 429 U.S. 97 (1976).

Medical care and mental health care are the driving issues in California’s “population” case,
Coleman v. Shwarzenegger.
A three judge panel found that California’s DOC is so overcrowded - 195% of capacity - they are unable to
provide the constitutionally required minimum amount of medical and mental health care.
![Page 25: The cost of incarceration](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062521/5681693b550346895de0ade8/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Crowding (195%)
Inability to provide medical & mental healthcare =
Unconstitutional. "Criminogenic."
Reduce the population by approx. 40,000, to 137.5% of capacity.
