CINCINNATI â A special master sided with WCPO in its complaint against the Ohio Department of Health last week, ruling that health officials violated the stateâs public records law when they refused to release the number of COVID-19 deaths at a Cincinnati nursing home.
WCPO and other media outlets have been fighting for more transparency for nearly a year against state health officials, who refuse to say how many residents die of COVID-19 at each nursing home. Other states, such as Kentucky, Indiana, Pennsylvania, Michigan and West Virginia, openly release this information to the public.
