BREAKING: 1 OF 3: Florida announced yesterday they're not counting the icu bed availability anymore, a key element in keeping things open, so the state can proceed to the next phase by July 4.

BREAKING 2 OF 3 I have multiple sources at DOH who have just told me they have been instructed this week to change the numbers and begin slowly deleting deaths and cases so it looks like Florida is improving next week in the leadup to July 4, like they've "made it over the hump."

No holidaze there. Nope. Not gonna do it. Never.

Instead, I'm planning on driving my auto through a car wash 400 times.

Concerted effort to make sure 3rd quarter GDP and other numbers look good prior to election. So whatever must be done to fully reopen by first week of July, Trump and Republican governors will do it. They figure they can deal with the fallout after the election.

Essentially trading lives for votes.

BREAKING 3 OF 3 I've independently verified they've deleted at least 1200 cases in the last week.They're only reporting all these cases now so they can restrict reporting next week to make everyone think it's over. I've had two DOH employees in different offices confirm
