Since social distancing in a jail is impossible, it makes sense to vaccinate as many inmates as possible, otherwise you are looking at a thousand people at once becoming infected, and all the attendant health care problems and costs that are attached to that scenario.
When someone is incarcerated, it is the responsibility of the captor to provide a safe and sanitary living condition. Part of that responsibility is making sure that the risk of a disease outbreak is managed.
