WALLEYE
WALLEYE AND PERCH NOT TOO LONG AGO. ERIC, LET'S GO TO THE DATA.
TAKE A LOOK.
DATA SLIDES.
WE CAN TELL YOU AS YOU CAN SEE,
KIND OF HOVER AROUND A THOUSAND
.
IT GOES DOWN ON THE WEEKENDS BUT
CONTINUES TO GO BACK UP.
WE JUST CAN'T SEEM TO GET THE
NUMBER OF NEW CASES DOWN
SIGNIFICANTLY FAIRLY FLAT IN
REGARD TO THE TRAGICALLY.
TWENTY FIVE DEATHS HAVE BEEN
REPORTED TO US IN THE LAST 24
HOURS.
SIXTY FIVE HOSPITALIZATIONS,
WHIH IS VERY SIMILAR TO THE 21
DAY AVERAGE ICU ADMISSIONS IS UP
OVER OVER OVER THAT AVERAGE.
ERIC, LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT THE
NEXT ONE.
THIS IS LAST WEEK'S ALERT.
THIS IS THIS WEEK'S AND WE'LL
TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THIS.
SIXTY NINE COUNTIES STAYED THE
SAME.
I MEAN, REALLY WHAT YOU'RE
SEEING IS JUST KIND OF SPREAD
THE VIRUS OVER OVER THE STATE.
SIXTY NINE COUNTY STATE, THE
SAME LEVEL, TWO COUNTIES
PREVALENCE SOMEWHAT DROPPED FROM
RED TO ORANGE.
SO CONGRATULATIONS TO PREBLE AND
SUMMIT.
WE ARE SEEING A SHIFT THROUGHOUT
THE STATE, THOUGH.
ELEVEN COUNTIES MOVED FROM
YELLOW TO ORANGE THIS WEEK IN A
NUMBER OF COUNTIES SEEING
SIGNIFICANT INCREASES IN CASES
EXCEEDING THE CDC THRESHOLD FOR
HIGH INCIDENCE.
REMEMBER THAT IT IS BASED UPON A
TWO WEEK PERIOD OF TIME FOUR
HUNDRED FOUR HUNDRED THOUSAND.
THAT NUMBER OF HIGH INCIDENT
COUNTIES HAD GROWN FROM 17 TO 21
.
70 PERCENT OF OHIOANS ARE NOW
LIVING IN ORANGE COUNTY.
WE HAVE FIVE RED COUNTIES THIS
WEEK, THE LOWEST NUMBER OF RED
COUNTIES WE'VE REPORTED SINCE
STARTING THE ALERT SYSTEM.
SO GOOD NEWS .
IN REGARD TO THAT LOWERING OF
THE RED COUNTIES, BUT THEY'RE
HIGH INCIDENT COUNTIES.
WE'RE SEEING A NUMBER OF THOSE
AS I SAID, RED COUNTIES THIS
WEEK OR BUTLER, MERCER,
MONTGOMERY, PORTAGE AND PUTNAM.
NOW LET'S TALK ABOUT WHAT WE'RE
SEEING IN OUR RED COUNTIES.
WE'LL TALK IT WILL GO IN THE
ORDER OF OR THEY ARE THE HIGHEST
NUMBER OF CASES PER 100000
PUTNAM COUNTY.
IT WOULD BE NUMBER ONE, 256
CASES PER HUNDRED THOUSAND IN
THE PAST TWO WEEKS.
THEY CONTINUE READ FOR THE THIRD
WEEK BECAUSE THE COUNTY MEETS
THAT CDC IS THRESHOLD FOR HIGH
INCIDENCE, WHICH IS 100.
SO THEY'RE WELL OVER THAT OR TWO
AND A HALF TIMES THAT YOUR
AVERAGE DAILY EMERGENCY
DEPARTMENT VISITS GREW FROM ONE
ON AUGUST 26, TO AN AVERAGE OF
THREE AND A HALF ON SEPTEMBER 4
.
IN AUGUST, MORE THAN 40 PERCENT
OF THEIR CASES WERE WITH PEOPLE
BETWEEN 50 AND 60.
NINE LOCAL HEALTH DEPARTMENT
OFFICIALS ATTRIBUTE HIGH CASE
NUMBERS TO SEVERAL LARGER SOCIAL
GATHERINGS, INCLUDING MULTIPLE
MANY WEDDINGS.
THEY ALSO SAID THEY'RE SPREAD IN
HOUSEHOLDS FROM ONE FAMILY TO
ANOTHER, ONE MEMBER GETTING ONE
MEMBER TO ANOTHER VERSUS COUNTY
WOULD BE SECOND ONE OF THE RED
COUNTIES.
THERE ARE 240 CASES PER 100000.
THAT'S THE SEVENTH CONSECUTIVE
WEEK FOR MERCER COUNTY.
THEY'VE HAD NINETY NINE NEW
CASES, ACTUAL CASES DURING THE
PAST TWO WEEKS.
AND IN A PRESS RELEASE YESTERDAY
,FROM THE MERCER COUNTY PUBLIC
HEALTH DEPARTMENT, THEY SAID
THAT THE COUNTY 19 NEW CASES
REPORTED DURING THE PRECEDING
DAY.
SO THAT'S VERY, VERY CONCERNING
.
MERCER COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENT
REPORTS THAT THE GROWTH IN CASES
IS NOT ATTRIBUTABLE REALLY TO
NURSING HOME, BUT RATHER IT
SPREAD CONTINUES THROUGHOUT THE
COUNTY, BUTLER COUNTY.
THEY WERE AT ONE HUNDRED AND
EIGHTY TWO CASES PER HUNDRED
THOUSAND.
THEY REMAIN RED BECAUSE THEY
MEET THE HIGH INCIDENCE
THRESHOLD.
SO WE SAID THIS IS 100.
A MIAMI UNIVERSITY CONTINUES TO
IMPACT CASE NUMBERS EVEN THOUGH
THE CASES ON CAMPUS ARE DROPPING
.
I TALKED THIS MORNING TO RANDY
THOMAS AT MIAMI.
RANDY WENT THROUGH THE FIGURES
WITH ME.
AND WHAT WE'RE SEEING IS FRANKLY
A REAL DECREASE IN SOME OF THESE
NUMBERS.
SO WE'RE HAPPY ABOUT THAT.
BUT WHAT WE'RE SEEING AT MIAMI
IS WHAT WE'RE SEEING AT OTHER
UNIVERSITIES OFF CAMPUS
ACTIVITIES, OFF CAMPUS
ACTIVITIES, NOT WHAT'S GOING ON
SO MUCH ON CAMPUS, BUT OFF
CAMPUS CONTINUE TO IMPACT THE
COUNTY'S NUMBER OF CASES,
MONTGOMERY COUNTY.
THEY THEY ARE AT ONE HUNDRED AND
THIRTY NINE CASES PER HUNDRED
THOUSAND.
THEY'VE BEEN DECLINING DURING
THE PAST FEW WEEKS, WHICH IS
GOOD WITH CASES PER CAPITA
DECLINING FROM 178 TO 439.
MUSKINGUM IS THE ONLY COUNTY TO
TRIGGER THE CLOSURE
HOSPITALIZATION INDICATOR.
THEIR HOSPITALIZATIONS WENT FROM
AN AVERAGE FOUR PER DAY ON
AUGUST 30, FIRST TO AN AVERAGE
OF SEVEN PER DAY ON SEPTEMBER
13TH.
CASES WITH THE UNIVERSITY AND
HAVE ALSO STABILIZED AS THEY
HAVE IT IN MIAMI.
SO WE'RE HAPPY TO HEAR THAT.
LET'S GO TO PORTAGE COUNTY, HOME
OF KENT STATE UNIVERSITY IS NEW
TO THE RED LEVEL.
THIS WEEK, THE COUNTY'S AVERAGE
DAILY CASES INCREASED FROM FIVE
AND A HALF.
AN AVERAGE OF FIVE AND HALF ON
AUGUST 26 TO ALMOST ELEVEN ON
SEPTEMBER 4TH.
PORTAGE COUNTY ALSO SEEN AN
INCREASE IN AVERAGE DAILY
OUTPATIENT VISITS FROM AN
AVERAGE OF SIX.
ON SEPTEMBER 10TH TO AN AVERAGE
OF NINE ON SEPTEMBER 15TH, THE
MAJORITY OF CASES ARE BEING
DRIVEN BY ACTIVITIES IN OFF
CAMPUS HOUSING AND TO A LESSER
DEGREE, GREEK HOUSING.
SO FAR IN SEPTEMBER 51 PERCENT
FOR EACH COUNTY'S CASES ARE IN
PEOPLE WHO ARE YOUNGER THAN 29.
ERIC, LET'S GO LOOK AT THE HIGH
INCIDENCE COUNTIES.
AS I SAID EARLIER, THE NUMBER OF
COUNTIES WITH CASES THAT EXCEED
THE CDC THRESHOLD FOR HIGH
INCIDENCE IS NOW AT 21 NEW
COUNTIES.
ADD TO THIS LIST OR ATHENS,
DELAWARE GREEN HARRISON AND PICK
AWAY COUNTIES.
A REMINDER THIS NUMBER IS
IMPORTANT BECAUSE IT MEANS A
CASE OF RISING STEADILY IN A
COUNTY.
EVEN THE COUNTY DOESN'T MEET ONE
OF OUR OTHER INDICATORS.
THEY STILL HAVE A SIGNIFICANT
NUMBER OF CASES.
HAVING HIGH CASE NUMBERS
INCREASES THE CHANCES OF THE
VIRUS SPREADING THROUGHOUT THE
COMMUNITY STEPS ARE NOT TAKING
TO SLOW THIS DOWN.
SO LET'S TALK ABOUT A FEW OF
THOSE COUNTIES.
AND AGAIN, THIS IS THE LIST OF
THE TOP 20 COUNTIES, PUTNAM.
THESE ARE IN ORDER.
PUTNAM, MERCER, ATHENS.
HARRISON, SHELBY.
HENRY FRANKLIN.
MIAMI.
MONTGOMERY ORDERLY IS JELLOWAY.
WARN LAWRENCE DARK CLARK IN
GREEN PICK AWAY MAJORS IN.
SO THOSE ARE THE TOP COUNTIES
BASED ON NUMBER OF CASES IN THE
LAST TWO WEEKS.
LET'S TALK A LITTLE BIT.
LET'S GO TO ATHENS COUNTY HIGH
UNIVERSITY STUDENTS ARE
CERTAINLY IMPACTING THE COUNTY.
OUTBREAKS IN ATHENS HAVE BEEN
ASSOCIATED AGAIN WITH OFF CAMPUS
ACTIVITIES.
HARRISON COUNTY IN HARRISON
COUNTY.
IN THE PAST TWO WEEKS AS TWENTY
NINE ACTUAL NEW CASES AND
THEY'VE HAD A TOTAL OF 60 SINCE
THE BEGINNING OF THE PANDEMIC.
SO YOU CAN SEE THAT THAT WAS A
COUNTY THAT DIDN'T HAVE A LOT OF
SPREAD ANALOGIES.
BAM MOVED RIGHT UP IN THE LAST
TWO WEEKS.
HEALTH DEPARTMENT OFFICIALS IN
HARRISON COUNTY TELL US ABOUT
HALF THE RECENT CASES ARE FROM
LONG TERM CARE FACILITY OUTBREAK
DELAWARE COUNTY.
THEY'VE HAD 366 NEW CASES DURING
THE PAST TWO WEEKS.
HALF OF THOSE ARE PEOPLE WHO ARE
YOUNGER, 30.
GREENE COUNTY HAD ONE HUNDRED IN
THE PAST TWO WEEKS.
ONE HUNDRED EIGHTY CASES DURING
THE PAST TWO WEEKS.
OF THOSE CASES, 48 PERCENT,
ABOUT HALF OR YOUNGER THAN 30.
AS YOU KNOW, GREEN COUNTY HAS
FIVE COLLEGES, UNIVERSITIES HERE
.
AWAY COUNTY HAS HAD EIGHTY FIVE
NEW CASES DURING THE PAST TWO
WEEKS.
ERIC, LET'S LOOK AT THIS SLIDE.
THIS IS KIND OF THIS IS A
SUMMARY.
WELL, LET ME JUST GET TO THAT IN
A MOMENT.
LET ME TALK ABOUT SOME STORIES
HERE.
WE TRIED TO DO THIS EVERY WEEK
AND AGAIN, NOT TO NOT TO SHAME
ANYBODY, BUT REALLY IT'S JUST TO
TRY TO UNDERSTAND ABOUT HOW THIS
SPREADS AND HOW EASILY IT DOES.
THIS IS SPREAD ASSOCIATED WITH A
FUNERAL IN JEFFERSON COUNTY.
SEVEN PEOPLE WERE SECOND.
LEAST 22 HAVE HAD TO BE
QUARANTINED.
THE PEOPLE WHO ARE QUARANTINED
OR IN TWO DIFFERENT COUNTIES AND
THE PEOPLE WHO ARE SICK OR IN
OHIO AND IN WEST VIRGINIA.
IN COBB COUNTY, EIGHT HIGH
SCHOOL VOLLEYBALL PLAYERS TESTED
POSITIVE FOR COVERED.
A FEW OF THE PLAYERS ATTENDED A
LARGE GRADUATION PARTY A COUPLE
OF WEEKS BEFORE THEY STARTED
FEELING SICK.
SO AGAIN, I KNOW PEOPLE ARE
ASKING ABOUT SPORTS AND THEY'RE
ASKING ABOUT WHAT'S GOING ON IN
SCHOOLS.
BUT BY AND LARGE, FROM WHAT
WE CAN SEE, IT IS OTHER EVENTS.
IT IS NOT A SPORTS COMPETITION,
AT LEAST SO FAR THAT WE'RE NOT
SEEING MUCH IN.
BUT IF IT IS STUDENTS HAVING
PARTIES AND DOING DOING OTHER
OTHER THINGS, WE HAVE A COUPLE
OF NEW DASHBOARDS THAT WE WANT
TO SHARE WITH YOU AND OUR KIDS.
OBVIOUSLY YOU ONLY HAVE ONE
OPPORTUNITY TO GROW UP.
IT'S UP TO US, THE ADULTS, TO
ENSURE THEY HAVE EVERY
OPPORTUNITY OF A BRIGHT FUTURE.
SO LET ME LOOK AT LOOK AT LOOK
AT SOME OF THESE AND ERIC, YOU
KNOW, I FORGOT TO GIVE GO
THROUGH THAT MAP AND I'LL GO
BACK TO THE MAP.
THIS IS A MAP WE HAVEN'T SHOWN
FOR A WHILE.
THIS ONE OVER HERE.
INDEED.
WHAT YOU'LL SEE IS THE RED.
THESE RED COUNTIES THAT ARE THAT
ARE OUTLINED IN RED AND
WE BELIEVE, ALTHOUGH WE MAY BE
BEHIND SOME THE DATA, BUT THE
COLOR FULLY REMOTE IS THE DARK
BLUE HYBRID IS THE LIGHT BLUE.
AND FOR THOSE SCHOOLS THAT ARE
FULLY BACK FIVE DAYS A WEEK, IT
IS IN THIS WHITE OR WHITISH
COLOR.
AND SO WHAT WE'VE DONE IS JUST
CIRCLE THE.
SO YOU CAN SEE IN SOME COUNTIES
THEY'RE ALMOST MOSTLY REMOTE.
YOU CAN SEE OTHER COUNTIES THAT
,YOU KNOW, THEY ARE TOTALLY
OPEN.
AND AGAIN, THE ONLY REASON TO
SHOW THESE IS JUST ENCOURAGE
PEOPLE IN THOSE COUNTIES, YOU
KNOW, TO TRY TO KEEP DURING
CANNOT KEEP THE KID OUT OF
SCHOOL.
KEEP YOUR KIDS PLAYING SPORTS.
KEEP YOUR SCHOOL.
THAT'S WHERE WE'RE SEEING, YOU
KNOW, THE RED COUNTIES.
SO LET'S GO THE NEXT ONE.
