The Nebraska state government acquiesced in late June, reflected in the stark dip in the \u201cunknown\u201d race and ethnicity case and death incidences around that time. Despite the increased reporting of race and ethnicity data, \u201cunknown\u201d ethnicity and race cases and death rates continue to rise at a disconcerting rate, outpaced only by white and \u201cnon-Hispanic\u201d race and ethnic groups. I would like to investigate which counties are contributing to the increasing count of \u201cunknown\u201d cases and deaths, as not all Nebraskan counties have this data easily accessible. I am particularly concerned that the \u201cunknown\u201d population rates may be attributable to Covid rates in Nebraska\u2019s prisons. Nebraskan prisons are situated in counties that do not have easily accessible Covid race and ethnicity data, are experiencing intense spikes in Covid, and do not disclose race and ethnicity data in their Covid dashboard. To that end, I would try to gather data from Nebraska\u2019s department of corrections and Nebraskan counties that do not publicly report Covid race and ethnicity data, and compare and visualize that data with our data.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I could envision this piece sitting at approximately 1500 words.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Potential Sources:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Nebraska Department of Corrections<\/li>\n<li>County-level health data reporting agencies<\/li>\n<li>Nebraska Office of Health Disparities and Health Equity<\/li>\n<li>ACLU Nebraska<\/li>\n<li>The Vera Institute<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nebraska: Who are your Unknowns?
