Who do you consider "non-biased"? First we have to agree on that. Good luck.
it gets funnier....they won't even look at it....if they did...they would see that the Florida Department of Health admitted to it when they got caught
What are the chances these labs are run by Democrats? Close to 100% I'm sure.
DeSantis appointed the head of the DoH.
The buck stops with Republicans on this one.
But itt's not political people. Government is completely incompetent no matter who is in charge. I can find numerous blunders by Dem-led agencies across the nation.
A slow-moving, inefficient glacier that runs over everything in its path - government.

The Florida Department of health revealed that some labs weren't reporting the negative results, JUST the positive. So the case count is accurate, the positivity rate is lower. This IS important, but not as important as say giving inaccurate positive counts would be. Now notice something, t6he breitbart article was posted just now. The linked fox news article that includes the response by the florida department of health? Was updated 4 hours ago with that information. But reading the breitbart article....its made to sound like some huge conspiracy.
And...turns out its mostly smaller private labs not giving both numbers. The overall affect is minor, and makes ZERO difference to the # of positive tests, just the % of tests that are positive.

I see this point and it's valid.
However, the positive rate is also an extremely important number. Don't discount it.
Floridians should consider themselves lucky that the screw-up was so outlandish (labs reporting 100% positive) because someone finally caught it.
