Does "out in the public domain" mean "disclosed to the public"? It appears that I've missed some nuance here that I can't tell.

=====================
The medical journal mentioned that the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) guidelines stipulate that deceased patients with suspected or probable Covid-19 should be included in mortality data. This is based on World Health Organization’s (WHO) ICD-10 codes for Covid-19-related deaths. However, the guidelines are advisory.

Lancet indicated that information about whether state data on deaths include suspected and probable cases are not out in the public domain.

I agree with you. It means "made open and known to the public".
