Reporter gets access to Michigan’s COVID nursing home death data

‘Stood up to Goliath and won.’

Just The News-

Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Charlie LeDuff has reached a settlement with the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services to gain access to data on the number of COVID-19 nursing home deaths in the state.

The health department agreed to release some of the public records LeDuff requested. The department also acknowledges it can’t determine if some patients killed by COVID-19 contracted the virus at a nursing home or other long-term care facility.

LeDuff sued March 9 after submitting a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request for data on COVID-19 deaths but the MDHHS failed to produce the requested records. The Mackinac Center Legal Foundation represented him.

“We stood up to Goliath and won,” LeDuff said in a statement. “While I’m pleased that some of the records were released, the state’s overall response is alarming and disappointing. Still, this is a win for the people of Michigan, and I’m glad this lawsuit was able to shed some light.” more here

  2. In his opening remarks to the 267th graduating class of Hillsdale college, college president Larry Arnn spoke of the preceding year’s challenges of distance learning caused by the pandemic, stating that Hillsdale students weren’t off campus as long as most colleges because “We just couldn’t work ourselves up to an unnatural fear of the governor.”

    God bless him. 🙂 His comment got quite a loud laugh from the crowd.
