EOC in Joplin refuses to say....they are still working on the 1,500 number. Quote from incident commander, “A VAST, VAST number of these 1,500 are alive and well, but have either not informed other relatives of their safety or made contact with the EOC to confirm their status”.

The figure of 1500 is used but no way there are that many deceased. Physically impossible. Most homes searched by now. Perhaps a few bodies could be missed, but not 1500. I suspect more will be found at Home Depot. Other businesses as well.

1500 was yesterdays number, at presser tonight they said about 750. And as others have mentioned, they may be with friends or family, it only means someone is looking for them.
