Health department ignored thousands of long-term care cases

Under tense questioning from reporters about how the public can determine whether or not a long-term care facility has COVID-19 cases, Arizona Health Department Director Dr. Cara Christ said they can’t, but suggested people should check the state’s inspection website for a facility’s history. To be clear, the website does not offer any information on facilities and COVID-19. Based on ADHS’s years-long failure to properly investigate complaints, it also does not offer a complete or accurate picture of a facility’s past.
