Yep. Sharing dirty needles. I bet Hepatitis C infection rate is exploding too.

Yeah, but if we just legalize all drugs, everyone will make a lot of money and we'll all live in a complete utopia!

These are all since the new year I believe. I'm really hoping that media outlets currently reporting on the situation will be able to come back in the future and report on a success story. |

Something needs to be done to clean up the drug problem down there. I have no idea what the answer is.

I don't think law enforcement has the 100% solution. Whatever the answer is, it's going to take some time to completely break the cycle, and it's some blend of law enforcement, education, and medical intervention. |

The problem in Scott County starts with the cops, and the fact that it's full of Eastern Kentuckians. Quite a few Austin PD and Scott Co. Sheriff's deputies are receiving "supplemental" income.

I grew up in a cop family in Oklahoma and I knew bunches of dirty cops there.

Over 140 cases now
so does that mean there are 1400 that are undiagnosed?

You're probably right, sadly. I'm sure there are a lot of people up there who don't even care enough to even get tested. |

According to the Scott Co. Health Dept. there are 160 active cases related to the needle sharing. The feds at CDC Atlanta are here and doing the majority of the investigations.
All positives must list needle partners and sexual partners. There was an initial list of over 500 people to find and only a few remain. I could not get an answer on a potential ratio of infected to latent outliers. |
