I’ve noticed the incident of local people in town getting vitiligo seems to be going up. The occurrence in the general population is believed 22/100,000. I can count 8 people who have the condition and I know that I don’t know nearly half the population of Bloomington. So anecdotally that leads me to believe that it is possible that the occurrence in town is much higher than the general population. This of course piqued my curiosity. So I did some research as to the cause of vitiligo. Although there are many potential causes, one cause that stuck out to me is environmental exposure to phenol-containing chemicals. So I looked up what phenol chemicals are and used for. Although they are used for many industrial products, I learned that they are most often used to clean medical devices. https://www.chemicalsafetyfacts.org/chemicals/phenol/ This made me think about the cleaning facility that Cook medical has in Ellettsville. And made me wonder if there is a company in town that uses this type of cleaning agent (Cook or some other) that may be spreading into our environment and causing exposure risk to the general population. So my question is: has the health department recieved data about the prevalence of vitiligo in our community and if so is it elevated in comparison to national averages? And if so, will there be an action plan to reduce the exposure risks to our community?

I submitted uReport Case #191361 for debris pickup at my property at 2625 E Edwards Row. The debris has not been picked up and I can no longer see this case number in the system. Can you please confirm that I'm still in the queue for pickup? Do you know around when I can expect the debris to be picked up? Thanks!

1122 S Henderson St

Case Date:
7/19/2024

A large branch broke on the tree in the front yard of 1121 S Henderson. It’s about 30’ long and pretty big. It’s just barely hanging on. If it falls, it will most likely land in the sidewalk and could easily hurt or kill someone. This fell 3 weeks ago during the storm. I understand the tree folks are busy, but that has mostly slowed down. I even saw a truck stop and offer to remove it… I used this form because I didn’t see an option that made sense for this type of report.
