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 Coranvius doesn’t discriminate against natural origin, race, color, creed, educational background, gender, blue or white-collar workers, religion, political affiliation, age, sexual preference, rich or poor, type of neighborhood you live in, or mental or physical challenges?
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? …if the deadly Coronavirus problem isn’t dealt with in an appropriate manner it has the potential of being a career-ender for several incumbent politicians?
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 the reality of coronavirus is that it will reach every location in the nation that has airports and interstate travel?… Evansville, Indiana is no exception to this rule? …at this point, all scientific evidence points to more cases spread more broadly?…it is advised not to follow the example of citizens of Coachella Valley, California who believed their elected officials when they made hollow guarantees that they would protect the masses from getting the Coronavirus?
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 as of 5:00 PM yesterday the INDIANA STATE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH (ISDH) reported that between 04/28/2020 and 05/06/2020 Indiana had 650 new positive cases of the COVID-19?  …there are now 22,503 positive cases of the COVID-19 virus in Indiana?

IS IT TRUE according to the ISDH officials only 124,782 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 One (1) in Five (5) people in the United States is unemployed?
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 we would also like to thank Ray Simmons, Director of Athletic Communications at USI for sending current sports happenings at that fine University?
IS IT TRUE our “READERS POLLS” are non-scientific but trendy?

  1. A career ender for some local politicians due to this virus? Their careers should have ended long ago. We have a county/city that has been flush with tax dollars for 20 years and was squandered by local politicians. Tax dollars were wasted on nice to have projects that enriched unions and left the city broke for 3 out of 12 months. Basically the city was using money from the water dept to pay bills. Now we are in a major crisis, broke, and 3 months behind in bills.
