So... @GovRonDeSantis misled the public, again. @RonDeSantisFL’s “Florida is 34th” claim excludes teens over 14 year old. When included, Florida pediatric cases is 9th. #COVID19

We epidemiologists just want to face palm daily.
2) this was how @GovRonDeSantis cheated the numbers. Image
3) after you properly add age 15-17, Florida pediatric #COVID19 cases jump to 9th (from the misleading 34th). Image

2) 130 countries have not received a single dose of vaccine and declared that “at this critical moment, vaccine equity is the biggest moral test before the global community.”
3) Of the countries with vaccination, it is dominated by a top few. Image
