i am in supoort of 6VAC15-40-770, a provision which includes providing and allowing the use of tampons for feminine hygiene for incarcertated women. This change would provide more santiary conditions for all and reduce exposure to blood born pathogens that may be associated with menstruation flow that may be unchecked or not properly contained.
