Welcome

A
Bloomington

thanks
very
much
chuck
good
to
be
with
you
all
our
first.
B
B
B
That
we
have
for
one
bright
spot.
We,
we
grew
by
about
five
percent
over
the
previous.
B
Submissions
over
the
last
two
weeks
we
had
about
a
four
percent
growth.
So
that's
a
quicker.
B
B
B
B
B
B
Representing
the
various
entities,
in
particular
those
like
iu
and
iu
health
and
the
school.
B
Communities,
employees,
staff,
customers,
etc,
vaccinated
in
in
great
degree.
That
is
a
huge.
B
A
Department

penny
caught
good
afternoon-
and
I
guess
I
would
say,
happy
lucky
friday,
the
13th.
C
C
C
Communities
throughout
monroe
county
if
the
current
order
is
set
to
expire
on
9.
C
C
C
C
C
C
There's
lots
of
good
research
from
reputable
places
online.
Now
we
have
had
some
reports
of
from.
C
Individuals
that
we've
been
talking
to
about
their
vaccination
and
why
it
took
them
a
while
to.
C
Individuals,
so
please
be
kind
and
we
want
people
to
get
vaccinated.
We.
C
C
C
C
C
C
C
C
C
We
appreciate
you
making
an
appointment
there
prior
to
that,
but
they
will
do
their
best
if
you.
C
C
C
C
Ride
iu
health
still
offers
rides
to
sites,
and
you
can
call
1888
iu
health
and
choose
option.
C
C
D
In
these
uncertain
times,
we
just
want
to
make
a
quick
note
for
residents
who
are
dealing.
D
D
Commissioners
worked
with
the
county
council
to
provide
township
assistance
fund,
a
township.
D
Assistance
fund
we
funded
already
125
000
will
be
is
administered
through
our
township
trustees.
D

E
E
E

A
Let's
next
go
to
indiana
university
and
kirk
white
well
good
afternoon.
Everyone
good
updates.
F
F
Are
doing
a
bit
better
and
we
we
can
take
some
some
solace
in
the
fact
that
that
message.
F
Is
getting
across
and
along
those
lines?
I'm
really
happy
to
to
note
today
that.
F
Across
all
of
our
campuses
across
the
state,
we're
approaching
an
85
percent.
F
Campus
approaching
90
percent
nine
zero,
that's
a
great
place
to
be,
and
that's
why
we're.
F
We're
convinced
that
we've
got
a
good
chance
of
getting
us
back
to
normal
and
certainly.
F
Back
to
what
we're
expecting
and
that's,
why
we're
we're
excited
about
welcoming.
So
many
of
our.
F
Students
back
to
the
campus
and
along
those
lines
this
weekend
starts
the
the
major
move
of.
F
On
sunday,
the
15th
they'll
check
in
centrally
and
and
at
that
point,
if
they've
been
vaccinated.
F
Or
not
fully
vaccinated,
they
will
be
tested
upon
arrival
and
we.
We
then
expect
about
2.
F
For
testing
this
fall,
you
know
key
to
what
our
success
was.
Last
year
before
we
had
the
vaccine.
F
F
Fully
vaccinated
have
an
exemption
on
file
with
us.
They
will
be
tested
once
a
week
through
our.
F
Covet
check
program
and
that's
how
we'll
be
able
to
determine
where
our
outbreaks
might
be.
F
F
With
finding
their
close
contacts
and
getting
them
into
a
quarantine
situation,
if
need
be,.
F
F
F
Changes
to
the
campus
posture-
we
will
do
that,
but
at
this
point
we're
very
optimistic
about.
F
Where
we'll
be,
this
fall,
even
though
there's
still
quite
a
bit
of
rent
with
the.
F
Delta
variant
and
the
next
waves
of
that
that
that
may
spike
over
the
coming
weeks
in
indiana.
F
And
all
with
that,
I'll
I'll
put
a
link
on
to
some
of
our
welcome
back
announcements.
F
And
look
forward
to
any
questions.
Thank
you
all
right,
thanks
kirk,
so
going
into
questions.
A
F
A
A
A
C
To
be
complacent,
with
our
numbers,
regardless
of
what
they
are
right,
that
that's
a
tall
order,
it.
C
Would
be
interesting
certainly
to
be
able
to
separate
those
out,
except
I
will
caution
you
that.
C
A
Going
once
anybody
does
well,
if
not
we'll,
go
ahead
and
move
on
this
one
again
from.
C
Certainly
ethan,
we
continue
to
reach
out.
We
have
reached
out
to
seven
oaks
and
people.
C
E
E
E
E
E
E
E
E
E
It's
a
very
low
number
again:
it's
you
know
it's
over
90s,
always
above
90
percent
of
those.
E
Admitted
to
the
hospital
and
hospitalized
are
vaccinated,
how
are
are
unbacked
are.
E
But
it
is
new
over
these
past
couple
months,
where
we're
starting
to
see
vaccinated
individuals.
E
E
Are
hosts
to
this
this
virus
and
create
these
variants,
and
so
it
is
the
the
solution.
Vaccination.
A
Okay,
we'll
take
some
more
questions.
If
you
have
them,
we
have
a
few
more
minutes
left
here.
F
The
united
states
supreme
court
refused
to
block
the
vaccine
requirement
that
we
have.
We.
F
Supreme
court
indiana
university
was
one
of
the
first
out
of
the
blocks
with
this,
and
now
that.
F
F
F
Legal
system
used
past
precedent
for
upholding
our
requirement,
citing
the
requirements
for.
F
Other
vaccinations,
and
so
we
think
that
will
continue
to
stand
and
and
help
us
on
our
road
to.
A
A
After
next
is,
is
the
plan
and
and
then
we
may
adjust
afterwards,
depending
on
circumstances.
