Florida Officials Won’t Release Coronavirus Death Toll Data

[Lakhota]

The state’s medical examiners were releasing coronavirus death totals, until the Department of Health intervened.

Florida state officials have blocked medical examiners from releasing coronavirus death totals after it was found the examiners’ death count was 10% higher than the state said it was.

The list of deaths, which had been released in real time by the state’s Medical Examiners Commission, is no longer being published, after the Florida Department of Health intervened, the Tampa Bay Times reported. The vital data, which includes demographic information and probable cause of death, has now been withheld for the last 11 days.

Meanwhile, Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) has painted a picture of a transparent government staying up-to-date on the coronavirus death toll.

Worldometers is still furnishing a count, wherever it's coming from.

Currently 1364 with 50 new deaths so far today.

I can only imagine why they would withhold that info. Maybe because FL Covid 19 policy, or lack of, may show a problem with it.

 

[airplanemechanic]

Maybe because the governor was tired of people dying WITH coronavirus being said to have died FROM it.

No surprise.

Corporate and personal greed and selfishness in Florida is going to carry a tragic human mortality price-tag.

We can't have worshipers of the Orange Baboon-God getting their hands on actual mortality data that would contradict their Masters.

You've gotta be a special kind of Scum to even seriously contemplate such a deadly hoodwinking of your own citizens.

Never mind actually implementing such a reprehensible and deceitful scheme.

The coronavirus model used by the White House has come under fire for its flawed projections.

The University of Washington’s Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) first estimated in late March that there would be fewer than 161,000 deaths total in the US. In early April, it revised its projections to say the total death toll through August was “projected to be 60,415."

The IHME on April 29 released a new update raising its estimates for total deaths to 72,433, but that, too, looks likely to be proved an underestimate as soon as next week.

The model has been cited often by the White House and has informed its policymaking. But it may have led the administration astray: The IHME has consistently forecast many fewer deaths than most other models, largely because the IHME model projects that deaths will decline rapidly after the peak — an assumption that has not been borne out.

The IHME coronavirus model keeps being wrong. Why are we still listening to it? - Vox

As of today, there were 27,250 new cases in one day for a total of 1,158,280 cases in the U.S. In one day there were 1,532 new deaths for a total of 67,285, and that is with a strong suspicion that the governors of Georgia, Texas, Florida, Tennessee, and other states are under reporting coronavirus deaths.United States Coronavirus: 1,158,881 Cases and 67,293 Deaths - Worldometer

It would be politically inconvenient for Republican governors to be ignoring the guidelines of the Republican President and have embarrassing death totals as a consequence.

Of course, Trump is ignoring his own guidelines by encouraging states to open up, but that's okay. Everyone knows Trump changes his mind as often as he changes his socks.

His position on an issue is based on who was the last person he talked to. If the last person was Georgia's governor Kemp, Trump will say one thing. If the last person was N.Y. governor Cuomo, Trump will say the exact opposite.

Trump can do or say what he wants. It's up to each governor to decide what to do in their state. Liberals already told us this.

I already found the death toll data for Florida for today so why couldn't the OP? Oh thats right he uses the huffington puffington post as a source rather than think for himself, he is told what to think.

“How can they get away with hiding this data?”

Republicans control the state.

And like Republicans everywhere they are frightened that high unemployment and an economy in recession will hurt Republicans this November.

So Republicans lie about the numbers; fewer deaths justify no longer following the health and safety guidelines.
