Ohio auditor: Release separate death category data COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — The Ohio Health Department should begin releasing data on coronavirus deaths in two categories: those whose death was caused by COVID-19, and those who died of other causes but also had a positive test, the state auditor said in a report. Not making the distinction “may lead to confusion for the layperson as to whether an individual died by COVID-19 or died with COVID-19,” said the report from ofﬁce of Republican state Auditor Keith Faber. While the state follows federal guidelines for coronavirus death reporting, some medical professionals may ﬁll out death certiﬁcates for people who died of other causes while also testing positive for COVID 19, according to the report. “Although inefﬁciencies, opportunities to improve transparency, and methods to collect better data certainly exist, the Ohio Department of Health has generally provided the public with correct information and managed Ohio’s response to the pandemic commendably,” Faber said Tuesday. Ohio has reported more than 18,300 coronavirus deaths to date. The seven-day rolling average of daily deaths in Ohio did not increase over the past two weeks, going from 12.71 on March 8 to 7 on March 22, according to an Associated AIM Media Midwest Operating, LLC (USPS 145-966) Telephone: 740-992-2155 Publishes every Tuesday through Saturday.

Press analysis of data provided by The COVID Tracking Project. In February, the state said it had discovered thousands of unreported coronavirus deaths and announced a restructuring of its infectious disease division. An outdated reporting system led to the undercount of more than 4,200 COVID-19 deaths in Ohio will now be retired, the Health Department said. The auditor’s death reporting recommendations came the same day an Ohio court that handles public records disputes ruled that Health Department certiﬁcates listing COVID-19 as the cause of death are a public record that must be released. The Ohio Court of Claims decision rejected arguments by the state that it doesn’t maintain the information as a “unique report” and isn’t required to provide it. The Health Department claimed, “improbably during a COVID-19 pandemic,” that it isn’t programmed to release the information in that form, even though it has produced similar reports, Court of Claims special master Jeffrey Clark said Tuesday. It doesn’t matter that the state “does not create the REEDSVILLE — The Eastern Local Board of Education approved numerous agenda items during its recent regular meeting, including a tentative list of graduates for the Class of 2021.

The state initially said it could provide the data, then declined in the fall when Miller repeated her request. In November, the state argued it was being asked to create a new record, and that Miller was asking for protected information by asking for names. “Though some information on a death record may be public, that does not mean that all the information on the record is public,” the state argued. The special master decision noted that Miller had previously obtained other databases of death records with individuals’ names. She could also obtain the information from local health departments at great expense and effort, just to duplicate what the state “easily provides from a database,” Clark said. Miller, 70, retired from the computer and medical ﬁelds, says she can’t wear a mask because of breathing issues, and has been frustrated because it has prohibited her from receiving medical treatment. Miller believes harm from pandemic health orders has outweighed the number of COVID19 deaths, but she isn’t assuming whether the data will show state coronavirus deaths higher or lower than what’s been reported. “What’s wrong with us seeing the data? What’s wrong with the people seeing it?” she said. “There just needs to be some checks and balances on this.” deaths) 70-79 — 150 cases (23 hospitalizations, 12 deaths) From page 1 80-89 — 64 cases (10 hospitalizations, 16 80-plus — 155 cases deaths ) (39 hospitalizations) 90-99 — 29 cases Age unknown — 44 (5 hospitalizations, 3 deaths deaths) Editor’s note: Since 100-109 — 2 cases (1 the Ohio Department of Health adjusted the way hospitalization) To date, the Meigs deaths are reported, the County Health Departdemographic information for deaths by county ment has administered 1,975 ﬁrst doses of is no longer available.

The top Roman soldiers of Jesus’s day rode on fancy, majestic horses; now those were a show of power and position. Those said power, strength, and authority. The donkey? Well, not so much. But while the donkey can represent the humility of Jesus, the ironic twist of the story is that by riding on this donkey, Jesus was also proclaiming that He was the Messiah, the real King! The dedicated Jews gathering in Jerusalem at this time for the celebration of the Passover feast would have known this Old Testament prophecy, so this simple act demonstrated a connection to the past by fulﬁlling the prophecy. It also pointed to the future of Jesus as king—not an earthly king as some imagined, but as the true King who would reign forever in God’s story of love, forgiveness, grace, and redemption: the Messiah, whom the Jews had been waiting for throughout the centuries. Here He came, riding on a simple donkey that day. This Sunday, just like those many years ago, wave your palm branches, shout Hosanna, and celebrate Jesus as the true king of our lives forever. Remember the lowly donkey and the important role he played in God’s plan that day by letting the Savior ride on his back. Let’s say our prayer. Father God, thank You for having a plan to save us from ourselves. Help us to remember that You always have our best interests at heart and can use anybody or anything to make that happen – even a lowly young donkey. In Jesus’ name we pray, Amen.

Liddell says he’ll continue speaking out against social-media users who direct racist, abusive and threatening messages at him and other athletes. Liddell was rattled by a social-media rant directed at him after the Buckeyes were upset by Oral Roberts in the ﬁrst round of the NCAA Tournament on Friday. Ohio State took the threats seriously enough to alert police, and Liddell decided to make them public via a Twitter post that has been liked over 223,000 times, retweeted more than 17,000 times and attracted national media attention. “I just wanted to use my voice a little bit,” Liddell said Wednesday in a video call with reporters. “I’ve been quiet about it, and I just keep pushing because I have pretty tough skin when it comes to criticism. But that wasn’t constructive criticism — it was just brutal, hardcore. Just didn’t sit right with me.” The rant at Liddell ended with: “I hope you die” “I still don’t understand why anybody would come at me like that,” the sophomore forward said. “I deﬁnitely haven’t hurt anybody in my life like that for those words to be said about me.” Liddell said 98% of Buckeyes fans are supportive even in the bad times, but there’s always the other 2%. “Sometimes fans get too high or too low, honestly,” he said. “They act out of emotion.” Liddell wasn’t the only tournament player to incur the wrath of a fan who felt wronged by his team’s performance. Illinois center Koﬁ Cockburn posted a screenshot of a racist Instagram message after the topseeded Illini were upset by Loyola Chicago. Cockburn replied to the screenshot with this comment: “I blame his parents.” The university said it was investigating. “A lot of athletes reached out to me and told me they were going through the same thing, and just have a tough skin and keep your head up,” Liddell said. “(Purdue star) Trevion Williams said he’s been getting things like that since his freshman year. And that’s not OK.” Liddell said he hadn’t considered dropping off social media because with all the pandemic-related restrictions on where players could go and who they could see, social media was their link to the outside world. “If you really think about it, this year social media is our social life,” he said. Liddell hopes that if enough people talk about this issue, it will begin to get resolved. “I know I’m not the only one going through things like this, and it’s better to use my voice than stay quiet all the time,” he said. “I feel like if I use my voice and lot of other athletes uses their voice, hopefully this will slow down and in the near future come to an end.” OVP SPORTS SCHEDULE Friday, March 26 Girls Basketball Calvary at Hannan, 6:30 Wahama at Ravenswood, 7 p.m. Wrestling Point Pleasant at University, 5:30 Saturday, March 27 Boys Basketball Point Pleasant at Wahama, 7:30 Parkersburg Christian at Hannan, 2 p.m. Girls Basketball Buffalo at Wahama, 3 p.m. Wrestling Wahama at Calhoun, Ravenswood, Winfield, TBA Baseball Meigs at Warren (DH), 11 a.m. River Valley at Rock Hill, 2 p.m. South Gallia at Symmes Valley (DH), 11 a.m. Softball Meigs at Warren (DH), noon South Gallia at Symmes Valley (DH), 11 a.m. Track and Field River Valley at Fairland, 11 a.m. Darron Cummings | AP Michigan guard Eli Brooks celebrates after making a 3-point basket during the second half of a second-round game against LSU in the NCAA men’s college basketball tournament at Lucas Oil Stadium Monday in Indianapolis. Experience shines through in NCAA Tournament By Noah Trister go-home scenario, experience can still be an asset.

Isaiah Livers and Brooks have been with the Wolverines for four years, and this season Howard added some experience via the transfer route. Grad transfer Mike Smith has taken over at point guard, and Brown arrived at Michigan after three seasons at Wake Forest. “Chaundee has been rock steady all season long,” Howard said. “He understands, all his teammates do, understand that when one guy may have it going one night, or two or three guys may have it going one night offensively, but that doesn’t mean that we stop playing. We still have to compete on both ends of the ﬂoor.” Production from players like Brown and Brooks became even more important after Livers went down with a foot injury. He hasn’t played in this tournament. In Oregon’s 95-80 win over Iowa, a key stretch came near the end of the ﬁrst half. At one point, coach Dana Altman had Duarte, Figueroa and Omoruyi in the game together, even though each had two fouls. “I told them we’ve got to be really careful here, but we can’t get behind these guys. We can’t be chasing them,” Altman said. “I stressed to them when I put them back in, ‘Fellas, I trust you here, can’t have stupid fouls, got to pull back, no stupid reaches, let’s ﬁnish the half, let’s get in the half with all three of you.’” Oregon was the team that closed the half strong, taking a 56-46 lead. Duarte, Figueroa and Omoruyi made it through the rest of the game without another foul. �COMICS Ohio Valley Publishing Friday, March 26, 2021 7 Having A Yard Sale?

As part of this effort, more than $556 million will be invested in Ohio, which includes an expected private investment of at least $450 million by Charter and more than $106 million in support won by Charter in the FCC’s Rural Digital Opportunity (RDOF) auction. The effort is part of the company’s recently announced expected investment of approximately $5 billion — offset by $1.2 billion in RDOF support — to expand Charter’s network to what the FCC estimates to be more than 1 million homes and small businesses in lower-density, mostly rural communities across 24 states that do not have access to broadband service of at least 25/3 Mbps. Among the areas targeted in the expansion is Meigs County. The new initiative is in addition to Charter’s existing network expansion plans and builds upon the company’s long track record of expanding broadband access to unserved and underserved locations. State leaders recognize the importance of rural broadband expansion to Ohio’s future. Of the announcement, Gov. Mike DeWine remarked, “Ohio welcomes Charter’s rural expansion project, which will bring substantial resources to bear to help close the broadband gap in unserved communities across the state. Charter’s broadband deployments will support greater prosperity and opportunity for all Ohioans.” “Gov. DeWine and I have made a mission of expanding high-speed internet access to help people around the state be better connected — whether it’s students accessing homework online, moms and dads working remotely or grandparents connecting to their families,” said Lt. Gov. Jon Husted. “We appreciate the commitment Charter has made to better serving their customers and helping us close the digital divide.” Charter’s commitment Abilities to improving broadband access complements a key priority of the DeWineHusted administration and the Ohio General Assembly, which have made working with private industry a priority component of its comprehensive efforts to bridge the digital divide and deliver high-speed internet access to unserved and underserved Ohioans. An April 2017 economic study by The Ohio State University found that if unserved Ohioans were connected to adequate broadband access, it would mean as much as a $2 billion impact for Ohio families and businesses, which does not include other potential beneﬁts, like reducing the period of unemployment among job seekers. Charter’s investment in expanding broadband access will be an important step toward reaching that goal and unlocking opportunity for Ohio. Connecting Appalachia Roughly 70% of the homes and small businesses estimated to be connected by Charter are located in Appalachian counties, which have historically struggled with the challenges of chronic poverty and which have a higher percentage of unserved areas than other regions in Ohio. The FCC has estimated that over the next several years, Charter will reach an additional 80,000 homes and small businesses across 28 underserved Appalachian counties. The long-term impact of Charter’s investment will be transformational, for example: · Meigs County: Today, about a third (32.9%) of Meigs County’s nearly 23,000 residents cannot access high-speed broadband. As a result of Charter’s investment in Ohio, an FCC-estimated 4,321 Meigs County homes and small businesses will have access to gigabit connections from Spectrum Internet®. · Adams County: Today, about one in four (26%) of Adams County’s nearly 27,700 residents cannot access high-speed broadband. As a result of Charter’s investment in Ohio, an FCC-estimated 3,806 Adams County homes and small businesses will have access to gigabit connections from Spectrum Internet. · Morgan County: Today, about 40% of that allow people with developmental disabilities to live as independently and productively as posFrom page 1 sible in our community; We encourage all citiThe mission and purpose zens to foster and support of Ohio’s county boards such opportunities that of DD remain as strong include full access to eduas ever, with county cation, housing, employboards continuing to ment, and recreational provide vital supports and resources to Ohioans activities; Therefore, we the Meigs with developmental disCounty Commissionabilities and their famiers do hereby proclaim lies; March 2021 as DevelPeople with developmental disabilities served opmental Disabilities Awareness Month and by the Meigs County offer full support to efforts Board of Developmental that assist people with Disabilities, their famidisabilities to make choiclies, friends, neighbors, and co-workers encourage es that enable them to live successful lives and realeveryone to focus on the ize their potential; abilities of all people; We urge all citizens to The most effective way join in this celebration by to increase this awareness is through everyone’s spreading awareness of the many contributions active participation in community activities and offered by people with the openness to learn and developmental disabilities in our community. acknowledge each indiIn other business, the vidual’s contribution; Policies must be devel- commissioners, Approved a resolution oped, attitudes shaped, and opportunities offered for the Department of Morgan County’s more than 14,500 residents cannot access high-speed broadband. As a result of Charter’s investment in Ohio, an FCC-estimated 3,002 Morgan County homes and small businesses will have access to gigabit connections from Spectrum Internet. · Perry County: Today, about one in three (28%) of Perry County’s more than 36,000 residents cannot access high-speed broadband. As a result of Charter’s investment in Ohio, an FCC-estimated 2,083 Perry County homes and small businesses will have access to gigabit connections from Spectrum Internet. Timely Execution Depends on Prompt Permitting and Access to Utility Poles The timely execution and potential reach of the buildout are dependent on several external factors, including the utility pole permitting and “make-ready” processes. With fewer homes and businesses in these areas, broadband providers need to access multiple poles for every new home served, as opposed to multiple homes per pole in higher-density settings. For example, a January 2020 study from the Buckeye Hills Regional Council — a council of governments dedicated to improving the lives of residents in southeast Ohio — found around 1,510 households per square mile in Columbus versus 26 households per square mile in Meigs County; 17 in Carthage Township, Athens County; and only 12 in Monroe Township, Perry County. The study approximates 25 utility poles per mile. As a result, pole applications, pole replacement rules and their afﬁliated issue resolution processes are all factors that can have a signiﬁcant impact on the length of time it takes to complete projects in these rural areas. Rutledge added, “The stronger collaboration we have among broadband providers, state regulators, pole owners and utility companies, the faster we can connect these communities with high-speed internet services. We look forward to working with local municipalities, electric cooperatives, and investor-owned utilities to ensure that permits are obtained in a timely, fair and cost-effective fashion.” Job and Family Services to apply for funding with the Ohio Department of Transportation for the public transit program.
