Florida is mis-reporting its covid data

Florida is mis-reporting its covid data | THIS WAS TAKEN ON SEPT 12TH FOR THE DAILY DEATHS IN FLORIDA ON SEPT 10TH. IT SHOWS 27 TOTAL NEW COVID DEATHS. THAT NUMBER REMAINED UNCHAINED FOR 7 DAYS. 8 DAYS LATER, THAT NUMBER UPDATED TO 133. 17 DAYS LATER, THAT SEPT 10TH NEW DEATH COUNT JUMPED TO 242. FLORIDAY IS DELIBERATELY SLOW-WALKING THE DEATH COUNTS TO KEEP ITS ROLLING 7-DAY AVERAGE LOW. | made w/ Imgflip meme maker

It's a mess. I don't see why any sane human would bother. It's like being concerned that cars cause accidents. It's now a stupid fact of life.

Or fact of death, depending on how you look at it.

I happened to check the NYT covid chart yesterday, & was surprised to see FL doing better. This explains it.

There is no uniform reporting requirement state to state. Some states report daily, weekly or monthly. The criteria is not consistent for what qualifies as a covid death, either.
