When the medical examiners’ list was available, it showed more deaths than the state’s count.

 

State officials have stopped releasing the list of coronavirus deaths being compiled by Florida’s medical examiners, which has at times shown a higher death toll than the state’s published count.

The list had previously been released in real time by the state Medical Examiners Commission. But earlier this month, after the Tampa Bay Times reported that the medical examiners’ death count was 10 percent higher than the figure released by the Florida Department of Health, state officials said the list needed to be reviewed and possibly redacted.

 

They’ve now been withholding it for nine days, without providing any of the information or specifying what they plan to remove.

Typical Republican response to a crisis, hide the numbers.

We have an ELECTION!!!  Release the numbers in December, these sheep don't really care anyhow.  

 

Give the sheep more checks

Give the sheep higher stock market prices

Give the sheep freedom

 

get elected.   then whatever.

 

EVERY PARTY does this.........we have no idea what they know

 

There are 1000000000 IMPORTANT stories we will never hear

I expect them to be high with all the retirees. Multiple articles have been saying "the bodies are piling up" at nursing homes. It's horrible.

 

I watched my grandparents go in their final years, fortunately it was at home.

And they are only counting the deaths of Florida residents. If you're only there for the winter your death doesn't count. If you don't have a Florida permanent residence, your death doesn't count. If you are a tourist your death doesn't count.

Maybe this will balance out the numbers from New York, where they are counting “probable” deaths from Covid19, without a positive test. 

They are using faulty data to make political decisions instead of decisions based on science and data. I no longer listen to anything trump od DeSantis  has to say.

They are underestimating deaths everywhere including New York, especially in New York!

I don't believe anyone. One would think governments in developed countries would behave differently, but apparently not, I guess we are Just another Banana republic.
