State of Florida is Underreporting and Withholding COVID-19 Death Numbers (unemployment, statistics)

[Elliott_CA]

"Exactly how many people have died in Florida as a result of contracting coronavirus may be in question after reports on Wednesday indicated that data compiled by medical examiners in Florida was squelched by the state government. Lists from the medical examiners had shown a higher number of deaths than the official count from the Florida Department of Health (FDH), according to reporting from the Tampa Bay Times."

We know China was playing games with their numbers. Now you can add Florida to the list. Texas is also suspect.

Brought to you from the state that butchered their unemployment website so that they could underreport unemployment claims at the height of the recession.

Yup. Also from the same article: "Florida had also stopped releasing statistics for coronavirus cases in nursing homes and senior care facilities. Data was only released after media outlets threatened to file a lawsuit demanding the information."

There seems to be a pattern here...
