Is LePage Admin the reason why we're NOT releasing chicken pox info?
Disease outbreak information was released during prior administrations. You have to wonder why Maine CDC has changed its policy -- is it because of our Dear Governor's influence?
"Maine’s policy of releasing “only the minimum amount of data necessary” during infectious disease outbreaks runs counter to recommendations issued by national public health organizations that believe being as open as possible is the best way to protect public health during outbreaks.
The Maine Center for Disease Control and Prevention has declined this week to release the names of the districts where four chicken pox outbreaks occurred this school year, despite having done so on at least three occasions during the 2000s. The Maine CDC doesn’t have to release the names of the schools, and has wide discretion on how much or how little information to release. Chicken pox has sickened 84 schoolchildren during the 2014-15 school year, according to the Maine CDC."
