Too little too late: The story of how Florida shattered the country's single-day COVID record

I posted about this a few days back.  Someone was claiming 173 deaths for 7/23 around noon on that date.  Today, the death toll for 7/23 remains at 54.  

 

The claims are all over the place, and it's hard to know what is correct.  The easiest thing to do is believe the worst possible scenario I guess.  

 

And as for the subject of false positives, and those here mocking my statements as untrue, just talked to a friend in Nashville about her experience... she got a letter from the TN DOH proclaiming her test results as negative.  Great news from the DOH, eh?  Turns out she never got tested.  But some lab near her sure did turn in her info as if she did.  I wonder if said lab will also get paid for her "test"?

You still want to stick with 54. Lmao

Let me type it slowly for you...

 

The FL DOH dashboard showed 54 when I posted it originally, it's not like I pulled the number out of thin air.  And as we BOTH know, the DOH numbers change daily, and will for some time before they stabilize. But eventually they will.

 

The part I have an issue with is you using numbers from news outlets that falsely inflate the numbers.  On the day I posted 54 from the FL DOH, you posted a link that claimed 173.  Here we are three weeks later, and STILL not at 173 deaths, and I doubt it will ever reach that number for the 23rd.  Ditto the other days where you posted links to "record numbers" articles...

247 on 31 Jul (126 showing today)

245 on 4 Aug (119 showing today)

225 on 5 Aug (105 showing today)

 

And on the ICU beds thing, you posted 146% capacity on 30 July, when it was actually 90.8%.

 

This is SO UNLIKE you to post #fakenews like this, I just don't get why you are doing it.  But I guess it's ok, as long as you really believe in it.

Read it on a forum today, so it must be true...

 

15 out of 10 tested positive today in Florida.

[Voice of Reason 10,298]

16 July 2020 appears to be the highest single-day covid death toll of 172, despite all the MSM (news?) fear-mongering articles to the contrary.  And rapidly dropping.

But the hits just KEEP ON COMING...

The verified death toll for the 23rd of July is now 159. They have verified all but 14 of the death reported in  the preliminary 173 count.

Gotcha.  It might actually turn out to be accurate by 30 days.
