Will you check the below and help me make accurate statements? This is from that ultimatum from the press
release issued by the County this morning (9-29). | suspect somebody on 7 will be asking for a response at
some point on Wednesday.
The County Health Officer has requested that the MDHHS provide to the County specific data to support its
claim that state data is more comprehensive and does not show a significant increase.
The state data was from a larger data set for ages xxxxxxxxxxxx, and for time periods xxxxxxxxxxxx. It showed
no significant EBL levels in the cohorts tested. (Do we have specific data to support this?)
To date, MDHHS has failed to confirm the geographic area included in their findings.
The sample included all addresses identifying FLINT as the mailing address. While we realize this might include
samples from areas outside Flint City (Flint Township and Mundy Township) we do not expect that to impact
our findings (based on what?) We are however, conducting another determination, which will further stratify
the data to represent Flint City and High Risk areas only. We will provide that analysis when it is completed,
probably by Oct. 5""?
We want to assure the state data is specific to the boundaries of the City of Flint, and not Flint addresses
which would include addresses in areas outside of the City of Flint.
See above.
