Biden COVID team releases 'previously hidden' Florida report

[TexasTowelie]

The new White House COVID-19 team released its first “previously hidden” state profiles Wednesday, showing Florida’s coronavirus infection rate fell 19% last week but deaths continued to climb.

The state profiles were previously shared by the Trump administration’s coronavirus task force only with state officials, and most states, including Florida, never released them to the public. The Orlando Sentinel had to file a lawsuit against Gov. Ron DeSantis in December to force the disclosure of the information.

“We are now sharing previously hidden weekly COVID-19 state profile reports with the public,” Dr. Cyrus Shahpar, the new White House COVID-19 data director said in a tweet Wednesday afternoon, which linked to the reports.

The move, the reports’ authors said, is part of an effort to “develop a shared understanding of the current status of the pandemic” across national, state and local levels.

1. Biden should hire Rebekah Jones

for his Covid task force - not only would they get real numbers but it would burn DeSatan’s ass so bad you could see the smoke all the way to Orlando.

9. Rebekah Jones could unlock a lot of doors.

Hell, if Joe hired her in the right spot he could make DeSantis answerable to HER.

Police body camera video has been released of authorities raiding the home of Rebekah Jones, a Florida scientist who said she was fired for refusing to censor the state's coronavirus data.

7. When will we see all the data FL didn't release to date?

That's where the real crimin' occurred.

For now, the White House profiles do not have the state-specific recommendations of previous weekly reports, which had warned Florida officials of increasing infection rates, deaths, the dangers of virus mutations and the need for educating residents on the importance of wearing masks.
