It saddens me that parents would be so cruel to allow this experimental drug into their children.

So far it doesn’t seem like a lot of them are hot footing it to the pediatrician office though. 1033 is not a lot. Too many but still.

It is still a short report time. Nexts Thursday's data will be a better indicator.

Indeed. I actually expected this week to be more just based off twitter insanity but 🤷‍♀️:)

Who in their right mind would put their child in a dangerous situation like that ???

Thanks for going after this data. And it begs the question why isn't Ohio tracking the numbers specifically for this new age group? This situation is beyond sad.

To be fair, they might just be slow on updating their website. We'll see if they set it up for next week, or if the numbers are too tiny (which I REALLY hope!)

It would surprise me if they didn't update the website as Ohio has been so data driven. I also really hope the numbers are so small that they're embarrassed (not sure if that's a good descriptor) and won't report.

They've moderated themselves significantly with their data in the last year. They've removed a number of critical measures from their webpage (like positivity rates and numbers of tests given). They've also been MUCH better about correcting obvious errors quickly and efficiently. Sometimes they still happen, but it's so rare, and always corrected by the next data release.

They're more cautious overall and they seem to have wised up that more information is not 'better' for them, especially with someone like me lurking about.

I'm really curious how this compares with other states.
