I hear this about influenza too and yet somehow managed to only get the flu about once every 25 years.

This is why:

"Florida continues to report the lowest daily coronavirus cases per capita in the nation as blue states see significant spikes, with the trend now continuing weeks on end."

"According to the New York Times’ coronavirus data tracker, Florida is reporting the lowest number of daily cases per 100,000 in the nation, sitting at seven."

"Governor (Ron) DeSantis does not interfere with the internal matters of UF, which this is. Nobody from our office has told UF professors to refrain from criticizing any state policies," said spokesperson Christina Pushaw.

A formal investigation has been launched by the University of Florida after an internal report detailed a culture of fear among faculty members claiming political influence on campus as well as instances of pressure to destroy and delay publication of Covid-19 research data.

Vice President of UF Research David Norton announced the investigation in an email to faculty and staff Friday morning, according to the university. The email indicates the results of the investigation will be made public upon completion, but did not give a timeline.
"UF Research became aware of possible violations of the UF Policy on Research Integrity," Norton wrote in an email, saying the possible violation relates "to the reported destruction of COVID-19 research data at UF."

The committee did not name specific individuals, in order to protect the jobs of faculty members, Dr. Danaya Wright, a professor at the University of Florida and one of six authors listed on the report told CNN.

"I don't know that we need a smoking gun, in particular, to say that this is coming from state government, governmental entities," Wright said.

A spokesperson for Florida's governor denied any involvement. "Governor (Ron) DeSantis does not interfere with the internal matters of UF, which this is. Nobody from our office has told UF professors to refrain from criticizing any state policies," said spokesperson Christina Pushaw.

The article is longer, I did not quote the entire thing.

Spousal Unit waded through the 275 page report from U of F’s faculty. Apparently they got the law school faculty to write large hunks of it, which isn’t exactly a rabble-rousing liberal corner of campus.

Yeah. After 62,000 Floridians have died from COVID. That's thirty times more than the entire country of Australia, which has double the population. A total embarrassment of leadership for Florida. DeSantis is by far the worst governor in the US and in Florida history.

Did you notice the statement at the end of the article, saying the article had been updated to state that there "has been no confirmation that covid-19 data has been destroyed"........

Just another left wing witch hunt against DeSantis. They can't stand the idea that Florida has done well with the covid "pandemic", despite not having all the restrictions imposed on the blue states by their left wing governors and mayors.

Australia were also on 100% lock down with families separated for months.
Not the same situation in any possible way, cherry picked example.
