State health officials are adding a school dashboard to the state’s coronavirus website at www.coronavirus.in.gov.
During Governor Eric Holcomb’s media briefing on Wednesday, State Health Commissioner Dr. Kristina Box said the state is analyzing multiple sources of information about COVID-19 cases in the state’s schools and duplicates will be removed to produce information for the dashboard.
Dr. Box stated, “We expect to continue to gather and refine this data in the coming weeks, so today’s dashboard should not be seen as a comprehensive overview of school cases.”
She presented some statistics from the newly-created dashboard which can be seen in the graphic shown in this post.
Dr. Box added that a search can be conducted for a specific school.
“If you don’t find your school immediately, don’t be alarmed. We are working with the remaining schools to help address technical issues to ensure that they are able to report their data,” said Dr. Box.
On a related note, Dr. Box commented that a second shipment of masks has gone out this week to schools who requested them.
