Coronavirus COVID-19 medical technician professional doctor hand giving a swab test.

A Covid-19 testing site is being set up at Salem High School beginning at 9a on December 8. 

The Indiana State Department of Health and Washington County Health Department are partnering with Salem Community Schools to host the Covid testing site. 

The clinic will be held from 9am-6pm December 8-12th (Tuesday- Saturday) at the Salem High School gymnasium 700 N. Harrison Street in Salem.   

According to Alicia Thompson of the health department, those being tested are asked to  use the parking lot located on Shelby Street and only enter through the designated doors.

“We are not aware of which tests the state will be utilizing,” said Thompson. “Results typically take 3-5 days but is dependent on how busy the labs are that run the test.”

Thompson said testing will be available to all members of the public, regardless of symptoms.

She said children as young as 2 years of age can be tested with parental consent.

Hoosiers will not be charged for testing and insurance is not required.

If you have private health insurance, please bring that information with you.

Local Schools Moving to 100 Percent Virtual Learning Today

0

Due to the anticipated move of Washington County to a “Red” status on the state’s Covid-19 map, local health officer Dr. Jeff Morgan ordered yesterday the move of all students to online learning beginning today. 

There has been much back and forth since August with in-person education and moves to a mix of virtual and in-person when there are cases of Covid-19 reported. 

The latest moves by Morgan sent all middle and high school students home before Thanksgiving while allowing elementary students to continue to attend in-person. 

Students had returned to school on November 30 in Washington County in a hybrid mix of in-person and virtual learning, but will completely stay at home beginning today. 

“We were hoping to finish the semester with in-person and hybrid learning,” said Salem Schools Superintendent Jon Acton.

“Unfortunately the rising Covid numbers have moved us to Remote Learning for the fourth time this school year.  These are not the circumstances we hoped to work within, but we will continue to educate our children, provide emotional support, and do our best regardless of circumstances.”

Action said the school will announce food pick up and delivery plans by Friday for the next two weeks.  

East Washington Schools has a link for parents to fill out for meals to be delivered by school buses over the next couple of weeks. 

East Washington Superintendent Dennis Stockdale said the school will still be offering meals for pick up tomorrow, Thursday, and Friday of this week from 9:45-11:00 each day.
 
Elementary students will need to pick up at the elementary and middle and high school students at the high school cafeteria.
 
He said beginning Monday, December 7, the school will begin its home meal delivery service during the weeks of December 7-11 and 14-18.
 
“We will come out soon with times of delivery. You will still be able to pick up at the school should that work better for you. Again, more information will be coming, soon on next week’s service,” he said.
 
This service will be provided only to our East Washington Families, Stockdale said.
 
“Any student residing in an East Washington household 18 and younger may ask for meals,” he said.
 
Parents are asked to fill out this form by Friday. https://forms.gle/oZs814cpUJMcJCqL9
 
West Washington Schools Superintendent Keith Nance said county health officials and school administrators got together at the beginning of November to discuss the growing number of Covid-19 cases. 
 
“We all agreed that it would take our entire community to impact the direction in which we are headed,” Nance wrote in an announcement sent to WSLM. 
 
“The above is true today. Except now, we are fighting to reopen and stay open,” he wrote. “A wise person once told me, “If you are in a hole, stop digging.” We need to collectively do all we can to stop the spread of Covid. It is a time that we not only do what is necessary at school but outside of school as well. Please consider your role in making the necessary changes to improve our current situation.”
 
Nance said the virtual schedule would begin today and assignments would be posted on the school’s google classroom account. 
 
“With limited preparation time for teachers, please understand that Wednesday may look different than the days ahead,” he noted. 
 
Nance released plans for long term closure for the students and staff. 
 
All staff is expected to report to work at normal times unless otherwise notified. 
 
Nance said he would communicate schedules of coverage, approval to work at home, which such requests should be written to him. 
 
He noted that all teachers will be expected to have video lessons of direct instruction posted each day by 9a along with all assignments. 
 
Teachers are also supposed to check that all assignments have been completed by 9p each day. 
 
Attendance will be taken each day and small Google meetings would be held to check in with small groups of students during normally scheduled classes. 
 
West Washington teachers do not have to answer emails or hangout calls after 3p but must return those emails and calls between 8a-3p the next day. 
 
Nance said teachers may not be able to immediately answer a question from a student but will get back in touch with that student or parent when they are available. 
 
There has been no news of a meal plan for West Washington students. 
 
 

Governer Extends Emergency Order for 9th Time

0

Indiana’s Governor Eric Holcomb extended the state’s public health emergency today through Dec. 31. It was the 9th time he’s extended the order for mask and additional mandates regarding the Coronavirus. 

Indiana has been under a public health emergency for 270 days.

“The spread of the disease in the Hoosier state has increased significantly over the past 30 days, as demonstrated by a 7-day average positivity rate of over 10%, an increase from under 4% ten weeks ago; new confirmed cases daily; increased hospitalizations, and tragically, continued deaths from COVID-19,” said Holcomb.

You can read the executive order here – Executive-Order-20-49-Ninth-Renewal-of-Emergency-Declaration (1)

The news comes on the same day that Indiana health officials reported 5,518 new cases of the coronavirus and 142 new deaths  – the most reported in any single day to date.

The updated figures bring Indiana’s total coronavirus toll to 5,598 deaths and 344,373 cases.

Holcomb first issued the Public Health Emergency executive order on March 6.

Indiana code dictates that a disaster emergency can only be in effect for 30 days unless renewed by the governor. 

Indiana now ranks second in the nation for COVID-19 hospitalizations per capita, according to new data. 

Roughly 50 out of every 100,000 Hoosiers are now hospitalized with COVID-19, an increase from last week that builds on an alarming trend that is straining the state’s hospital system. 

Only South Dakota at 61 per 100,000 is doing worse, according to the IndyStar analysis of data from the COVID Tracking Project, an initiative led by journalists, scientists and others since the pandemic began.

But while South Dakota has about 480 hospital beds per 100,000 people, according to a 2018 survey by the Kaiser Family Foundation, Indiana has about 270. 

“The current hospitalization trends are alarming and are straining Indiana’s hospitals’ ability to care for all patients, including those with COVID 19,” said Brian Tabor, president of the Indiana Hospital Association in an emailed statement.

“Hospitals across the state are struggling with staffing issues as the number of cases has grown. Each one of us must commit to doing our part to reduce the spread of this terrible disease so that all Hoosiers can access the care that they need 24/7.”

Less than two weeks ago, Indiana led 44 other states in hospitalizations, but the number of patients hospitalized for COVID treatment across the state has increased since to 3,401. In the spring the number of people hospitalized never broke 2,000.

While new coronavirus cases dipped over the weekend — perhaps because fewer people got tested during the holiday weekend — the number of patients hospitalized for COVID now exceeds any other time in the pandemic.

The count dipped slightly from Wednesday to Thursday but otherwise has been on the rise for the past 10 days.

 
The Institute reported 3,834 (over half of all Covid deaths) had been in hospitals.
