  1. Very interested as to what factors are contributing to the lack of cases in Vinton County. Is this simply an issue of testing resources, or is the county taking greater precautions than the rest of the state?

  2. It is likely that there are actual cases in this county, but limited resources and testing supplies. However, I would also surmise that cases are few as the surrounding counties in SE Ohio are very few.
