Black men may survive longer in prison than out - Health - Men's health - msnbc.com: "Researchers say it's not the first time a study has found lower death rates among certain groups of inmates -- particularly disadvantaged people, who might get protection against violent injuries and murder.
'Ironically, prisons are often the only provider of medical care accessible by these underserved and vulnerable Americans,' said Hung-En Sung of the John Jay College of Criminal Justice in New York.
'Typically, prison-based care is more comprehensive than what inmates have received prior to their admission,' Sung, who wasn't involved in the new study, told Reuters Health by email."
