VIRGINIA (WRIC) — The Virginia Department of Corrections (VADOC) has temporarily suspended in-person visitation due to spikes in COVID cases.
On Monday, VADOC tweeted, “due to an increase in the number of inmate and staff COVID-19 cases, in-person visitation at all facilities has been temporarily suspended through February 13, 2022. We appreciate your understanding.”
Earlier this month, VADOC suspended in-person visitation through January 28, but has since announced the extension to that initial period.
