Today the state of Iowa just point blank said they won't report an outbreak unless the media asks at a news conference https://twitter.com/CaroRCummings/status/1265680250828136448

Following up Reisetter said part of the lack of reporting is so businesses can do the right and report, which is unconscionable for people in the community trying to do the right thing
. @okayhenderson doing a great job of pressing the governor on why these outbreaks at businesses aren't being reported better, uses example of Sioux Center with a big outbreak and residents didn't know. @IAGovernor responds, "we're working very hard."
"I hear ya, we can take a look at our local partners to report that data better," @IAGovernor admits. BUT THERE IS A WEBSITE RIGHT THERE. Just report it there. We've been in a pandemic for months.
also really great follow up from @ErinDMurphy pressing the governor as well on why she's putting the burden of reporting this on the media
Some clarification on the Sioux Center question. Which highlights how the state is not forthcoming or transparent on outbreaks https://twitter.com/Rushthewriter/status/1265684909538054146?s=19
