Truth in COVID Data - Team Blackburn
Donation protected
Before I start. Thank you for listening. For Acting. For Praying.
Would you consider taking another step in partnership?
This path has not been easy for any of us - and for my part, there were many days where I felt like I was speaking to the wind... I have spent approximately 1,000 hours so far. That's a lot. I wish it was more. Between my various social media sites - there are over 10,000 people with direct access to my research. The estimate is at least 10x that through partners - reaching at least 100,000 people every week.
People are dying due to the policies we have pursued at every level of Government. With a Marketing Background and 12 years experience building data solutions for organizations like Mayo Clinic, MD Anderson, and many others - this has been my role - to be a voice - and to tell the story of the data.
A good friend Eric Crawford https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100009334275980 has been asking to donate money to help my efforts to continue providing research and data. As many of you know, I've been technically challenged with personal technology that is dating back to 2009 (yikes).
I've hesitated for awhile, not wanting to ask anything of others - but enough people have been pestering me - and there is still so much to do. My technology challenges have caused frequent delays and interruptions in our broadcasts - which costs you time (So sorry!!) - and much of what I do between my computer and phone is not integrated. So... it's time to invest and upgrade and use those investments for you.
I'm currently supporting weekly broadcasts to thousands throughout Ohio. While most of our focus has been central Ohio, our data and research is reviewed weekly by the press and others in Cleveland, Cincinnati and throughout the country.
I post daily on COVID Data events in Ohio and throughout the country bringing you the most relevant data.
I was one of the first in Ohio to call out the problems in the data - and to go public. Those were lonely days back in March - but the data does not lie - and we had plenty coming out of Italy and China.
I share not what is popular - but what is true - with a focus on what is not being focused on.
Currently - that includes T-Cell Cross Reactivity, Viral Load, Herd Immunity Strategies, as well as the socio economic impacts of policies.
We (As there are now several who are contributing to our work) also cover govt policy, law suits and legal/financial/tax implications. Schools has been another huge focus - my daughter is a Senior in High School and I'm fighting for her ability to have the best experience possible.
With enough support, we may be able to broaden our efforts into wider distribution and even more in depth video and print. One of the most significant themes will be to encourage health and wellness initiatives. Not just avoiding the virus.
Some of my initial posts were literally just photos of my computer screen that I started sending to our state legislators, the CIO and Health Dept as well as any elected official that would give me their ear.
In May I met Jack Windsor and we contributed to each other's efforts to bring sunshine to the full data - and demand more from our State Government.
I'm currently supporting legislative efforts at every level of state and local govt, providing research to those pursuing lawsuits, a voice behind the scenes most days. We all have to do our part. It's our patriotic duty and it's part of my core values to help others in any way I can.
Let's partner and see if we can make even more of a difference.
Below are a few photos from the early work. People thought I was crazy. That I didn't think the virus was real. It was real, but the data in China and Italy was telling a story that no one was paying attention to.

The data in Italy made it clearly - co-morbidities was the primary issue - and we should have been pushing people outside their homes - not inside.
My grandmother is in a nursing home - she tested positive in May - but never developed symptoms.
I worked with the Dispatch to help them break their stories on the problems in the nursing homes - fielding nearly daily calls for a couple weeks from the press.
I was the first to call out the problems with the "daily avg" exceeding the actual total number of cases by date on any given day - highlighting the fact Ohio was using "reported dates" instead of actual dates.
