We hope that today’s “IS IT TRUE” will provoke honest and open dialogue concerning issues that we, as responsible citizens of this community, need to address in a rational and responsible way?

IS IT TRUE the reality of coronavirus is that it will reach every location in the nation that has airports and interstate travel?…that Vanderburgh, Warrick and Posey County, Indiana are no exception to this rule? …at this point, scientific evidence points to more cases will continue to spread more broadly?
IS IT TRUE we shouldn’t let the Coronavius pandemic manage us but its time we start managing it? ….behavioral risk mitigation strategies are the best option for slowing the spread of this disease?  …we give our full support and best wishes to the “Evansville Re-Open Task Force” and hope that they will succeed?
IS IT TRUE to date, a disappointing 140,029 tests have been reported to ISDH, up from 135,686 on Saturday? …this figure amounts to about 2% of the total population of Indiana? …so far an astounding 18% of the Hoosiers tested positive with the COVID-19 virus?
IS IT TRUE according to the ISDH officials only 140,029 Hoosiers out of 6.7
 million people living in Indiana have been tested for the COVID-19 virus?  …one could only surmise what the results would be if the majority of the remaining 6.7 million Hoosier were tested for the COVID -19 virus?
IS IT TRUE that the Indiana State Department of Health (ISDH) announced yesterday that 402 additional Hoosiers have been diagnosed with COVID-19 through testing at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and private laboratories?  …this brings to 24,126 the total number of Indiana residents known to have the novel coronavirus following corrections to the previous day’s total?

IS IT TRUE that a total of 1,379 Hoosiers have been confirmed to have died of COVID-19, an increase of 17 over the previous day?  …that another 129 probable deaths have been reported based on clinical diagnoses in patients for whom no positive test is on record? … that death is reported based on when data are received by ISDH and occurred over multiple days?

IS IT TRUE that ISHD reported that only 3,851 people living in Vanderburgh County have been tested for the COVID–19?  …that 185 people have tested positive for the COVID -19 virus and only 2 people have died?  …about 182,000 people live in Vanderburgh County?

IS IT TRUE that mere 895 people living in Warrick County took the test for the COVI(D -19 virus and 123 tested positive?  …as of yesterday, 20 people have died so far in Warrick County? …that 68,000 people live in Warrick County?
IS IT TRUE in Posey County only 212 people were tested for the COVI(D -19 virus?  …15 people tested positive?…so far that no death has been reported in Posey County?  …that around 26,000 live in Posey County?
IS IT TRUE if people continue to conduct their personal business as they did in the past they could catch this deadly virus and could conceivably become very sick or even die?
IS IT TRUE that “Government can’t do for people what they should do for themselves”?  …please wear a mask, put on gloves, stay in as much as possible, and practice safe distancing?
IS IT TRUE a widely cited scientific model is predicting that Indiana reopening is projected to increase COVID -19 virus deaths by 543%?  …we hope and pray that this prediction will prove to have very little has no scientific or mathematical value?
IS IT TRUE one of the reasons why Coranvius is considered to be deadly is because currently there are no known Vaccines to protect us against It?
IS IT TRUE that 14,000 people have volunteered to be infected with coronavirus?  …they want to be part of a “human challenge trial,” of an ethically controversial vaccine test that infects people with a virus that doesn’t yet have a cure?  ….if selected these volunteers will be part of a “human challenge trial by using a method of vaccine testing that would deliberately infect people with the coronavirus as a means of accelerating development?…we consider these Voleneeters to be true American “HEROS”?
IS IT TRUE a proposed contractual agreement was listed on the Public Works Board agenda and was ratified by the Board?  …this contractural agreement was between Lawman Security Consulting of Evansville and the City of Evansville (DMD)?  …this agreement gave Lawman Security Consulting the authority to provide security at Sartor Retreat House that is currently housing homeless persons needing to isolate due to the COVID-19 epidemic?  …this contract states that Lawman Security Consulting would receive $30,000.00 a month for services rendered? …we are extremely puzzled why hasn’t this legal and binding contract been consummated by the Evansville DMD with Lawman Security Consulting?
IS IT TRUE that Abraham Lincoln once said: “Let the people know the truth and the people will be safe”?
IS IT TRUE when the people fear the Government we have Tyranny!  When the Government fears the people we have Liberty?

IS IT TRUE our “READERS POLLS” are non-scientific but trendy?

Today’s “Readers Poll” question is: Which state do you feel that has been more forthcoming about the current status of the deadly COVID-19 virus?

  1. Democrats need to held totally responsible for the spread of this virus in this country. They used time, resources and energy attempting to bring down a president while their good friend, communist china was infecting the world. This virus may know no boundaries but it sure seems to target people who don’t follow the rules which historically has been liberal democrats. The death of all those senior folks in continuing care, the second most vulnerable of our people should be laid at the feet of liberals. I guess most liberals are gleeful that this terrible disease has wrecked the great Trump economic recovery, not surprising coming from a group that kills babies and puts old folks at risk.

  2. “I don’t take responsibility at all,” said President Donald Trump in the Rose Garden on March 13. Those words will probably end up as the epitaph of his failed presidency, the single sentence that sums it all up.

    Let’s count the ways Trump has failed to date, starting at the very top:

    1. President Trump at first downplayed the coronavirus, and then he later sent mixed messages about it.
    2. The administration didn’t heed classified warnings from the intelligence community — back in January and February — about the dangers the coronavirus posed for the global community.
    3. The administration, in 2018, disbanded its National Security Council pandemic team.
    4. The administration eliminated a CDC job dedicated to detecting outbreaks in China.
    5. The Department of Homeland Security, which plays a vital role in responding to disasters, remains staffed with an acting secretary, an acting chief of staff, an acting general counsel and a vacancy at deputy secretary.
    6. The Centers for Disease Control’s initial coronavirus test failed, resulting in a lost month to combat the virus.

    • Actually none of what you stated are true. Trump was on it from day1 but the dems were sending mixed messages. Pelosi stated all is well get to China town and have a feast. Cuomo, we’re New Yorkers go out and have a good time, Warren Wilhelm said go out to a play, New York is open for business. Democrats have fought against America and Trump from the start and this virus is the results. The virus does seem to target democrats, the party that is suppose to have all the smart people, the so called liberal elite. It’s hard to take anyone who belongs to the party of Maxine Waters serious. Chinese are the friend of the democrat party, a party in need of a friend and China fills the need.

  3. Report: Xi Jinping Asked W.H.O. Chief Tedros to Delay Pandemic Warning

    The German newspaper Der Spiegel published a report this weekend stating German intelligence officials believed Chinese dictator Xi Jinping personally asked the head of the World Health Organization (W.H.O.), Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, to delay key warnings about the Chinese coronavirus.

    Xi allegedly urged Tedros not to declare the outbreak a pandemic yet at the time of the phone conversation, which the German newspaper said had occurred on January 21. He also reportedly encouraged Tedros not to share information showing that the virus could spread from person to person.

    The conversation allegedly occurred a week before Tedros personally visited Beijing – despite mounting concerns that international travel may hinder the fight against the outbreak that at the time was largely contained in China – and discussed the newly identified virus with Xi.

    Tedros declared the Chinese coronavirus crisis a pandemic on March 11, the day after Xi Jinping visited Wuhan, the origin city of the virus, and declared that China had beaten its local outbreak. Xi avoided Wuhan until then despite reports indicating cases of a contagious respiratory disease spreading in the central Chinese city as early as November 2019….

    • I guess you’re trying to say Trump is too weak to handle this.
      And too weak to handle the Dems.
      And too weak to handle China.
      It shows.
