Epidemiologists reveal that black men in America have a better survival rate in prison than outside

Based on the relatively poor health of incarcerated populations and the high mortality rates seen after release, one might predict that inmates would also suffer from high mortality while incarcerated. A recent Bureau of Justice Statistics report, however, showed that while incarcerated, inmates aged 15–64 years experience 19% lower mortality than comparably aged controls in the general population; among blacks, mortality for prisoners is 43% lower than age-adjusted mortality for the general black population.

That is a sad news about black men in America, I dont know why black men get into trouble easily. Need some overseas holiday packages? You need a vacation.
