DeSantis administration fires COVID-19 data guru for ‘insubordination’
Quote:
Even before the removal of Jones, questions about Florida’s COVID-19 data had persisted. The Herald and a consortium of other news outlets sued the state over its initial refusal to release data about COVID-19 cases and deaths in nursing homes and other long-term care facilities. The state finally began releasing data about cases in long-term care data in late April. And the state is inconsistent in how it chooses to represent key data points. Hospitalization data includes the aggregate number of people who have been hospitalized, not current numbers of people hospitalized, but the state replaced the overall case count with the number of “new positive COVID-19 cases.” Gov. DeSantis who has touted the state’s low positive rate of cases as a justification for reopening the state, initially spoke of the positive rate among all cases, but has more recently focused on the percentage of positives among new cases, which has tended to be lower.

This son of a bitch murderer is exactly like Trump. A good woman tries to provide honest information to the public and he fires her for it. Florida has been manipulating and trying to hide the grim facts of what has been going on here.
He has lied and cheated the public out of unemployment benefits. They have stolen money earmarked for unemployment disobeying the federal law via the stimulus package. They refuse to pay unemployment to force people into death traps. And he’s lying and covering up data about infection rates especially among the elderly. The numbers are clearly being manipulated to ensure that Trump win’s Florida that is a crucial swing state often won by around 1% of the vote and has notoriously corrupt elections including the “hanging chads” incident that cost Al Gore his rightful election.
**** DeSantis. He’s a goddamn murderer and I am NOT being hyperbolic.
