6 thoughts on “State not releasing detailed COVID outbreak data

  1. Wow, look at all the numbers!!! I feel so comforted, NOT!!! The reality is that the pandemic is getting worse by the day. Focusing mainly on nursing homes is only a small step in the solution for our State. The nursing home situation would not have occurred IF the State would have cared more for the disabled and the elderly by providing months ago adequate staffing with adequate training of the staff for the pandemic. In addition, it did not provide all of the tools necessary to contain the virus, i.e. regular testing of residents and staff, more masks, gloves, hand sanitation, etc. etc. The State decided NOT to use, and still not using, all of CARES money for the most vulnerable citizens of our State.

    Besides the nursing home situation, the rest of the State is suffering as well. In practice, the State has chosen the economy over health. The MASK MANDATE has no teeth without some type of enforcement. In addition, what will it take (deaths, hospitalization, ICU capacity, etc.) for the Governor to decide that STAGE 5 IS NOT WORKING. With the incidence rising, the consequences will follow!!

    It appears that the approach to contain the virus has been tangled up in national and State politics. Having an election this fall, complicates the situation as well. Indiana is a an extreme disadvantage since public health has never been a priority for the State and we do not have an independent voice, e.g. Dr. Anthony Fauci to remind the Emperor that “he is plumb naked.” With only one predominant medical school, there has no medical voice to criticize how things have been handled by the State.

    Finally, if one has any sense of history, one would know that we are making the same mistakes as were done with the 1918 pandemic.

    1. Could it be that the governor does not want to be fully transparent and honest with us because he does not want to cause a panic? Gee, where have we heard that before?

  2. The most important secret kept from the public is underlying risk factors per fatality — not counting age, which tends to be a coincident variable not a causal factor. If we could learn what % of fatalities by age group had high blood glucose, chronic hypertension or impaired immune system it would tell an important story. The absence of this obviously important data leads to the conclusion that it is being concealed with purpose: much easier to maintain public panic (justifying “emergency” power) if people think Covid-19 kills randomly. It doesn’t.

    1. +1 Mark. And take it a step further hospitals don’t want to disclose the detail because there is too much money in reimbursement out there to capture if they add COVID as an underlying cause on a patient chart.

  3. If the age range of positive cases is correct on the state site, the predominant age groups testing positive are younger people, up to age 29. I am assuming many are asymptomatic as well. Where does one find the school information?
