Hey Trumpers – wear your friggin’ masks!
Dude, people *are* wearing their masks. Those things don’t work like you think they do.
Relax Randy. Did you read the part about testing 12,323 more unique individuals? The most since Sept. 4? Positivity rate barely rose. It’s going to be okay Randy, contrary to what they want you to believe. Go live your life man.
“Dude”…”Man” ……..I feel like I’m back in high school. Lol
Kevin, everywhere I go, I see groups of people not wearing masks or wearing them improperly. They do work. Chris B. – get a clue – the positivity rate has been going up steadily for the last several weeks. jennifer s. – haha, good one, Babe! 🙂
Good – now we’ll know just how low the mortality rate is!
How about this for a headline: “BREAKING: Indiana tests 12,323 more unique individuals, the highest mark since Sept. 4. The cumulative positivity rate for unique individuals rose slightly from 8.9% to 9%.”
Not negative enough or dramatic enough, right?
Exactly Chris B. The manipulation (and omission) of the facts to support an agenda is absolutely sickening! Smarten up people…please!
9% is a very alarming positivity rate. The guidelines from various research institutions like John’s Hopkins says so. The headline should be alarming because the story is.
With just under 22% of the entire State’s population having been tested, the “needle” should statistically not be moving at all, as the sample size is definitely large enough to remove individual variability. So then the question remains, why is the positivity rate going up as stated instead of staying steady? Even a little movement such as .1% at this point is statistically very significant. It would seem highly likely that there is increasing exposure to the virus by individuals that are not abiding by generally accepted scientific recommendations.
And while the overall State case rate is rising, the Marion County case rate is dropping as a percentage of the whole, indicating that the most recent cases are occurring in presumably rural portions of the State. Why is that? More educated people? Better leadership in Marion County? Better understanding of the value of wearing a mask? Some other factor? Personally, I believe that it indicates that face masks are working.
Why aren’t these darn masks working?!
I’m afraid to go outside with all the sick people walking around and the dead bodies to step over.
Please Mayor Joe, save us!!!
Because 20% of the population is too selfish to wear them. And because there shouldn’t be indoor bars/restaurants open without severe capacity restrictions.
IBJ you should be better than this with these headlines. You’re supposed to be a business publication. Stop with the clickbait.
What’s not true about the headline? Id say Stupid Hoosiers but that’s redundant.
Didn’t say it wasn’t true Michael G. But what is also true is that it’s also the highest amount of tests done and the positivity rate barely moved. Any relation to Kenny G, by chance?
Chris B., the number of tests in today’s report do not affect the 7-day positivity rate. As noted in the report, the health department uses a 6-day lag to allow time to receive comprehensive results. Today’s numbers showed that more than 15% of the unique individuals tested were positive for COVID. We haven’t seen that high of a daily percentage since May. The cumulative positivity rate has been slowly climbing for weeks. It hasn’t been this high since July.
Like I said, Chris B, stupid Hoosier. Math not your strong suit, eh? Duh.
Blah blah. Stay home chill
What I hate is how this issue is dividing us. We DO NOT NEED that. Everyone seems to think they are smarter than the next person. Just live your life, be smart in your choices, and respect each other. If you think the government is the answer, that is your first mistake.
