Refuse to tamper with data but be fired U.S. scientists with facts to lie

a scientist named Rebecca Jones has been expelled from the local government for refusing to change data on the new corona pneumonia outbreak, NBC's "12 News" reported on June 11. But afterwards, Jones set up a website called the Florida New Crown Community Action Network and called on locals to post outbreak data directly to the site to ensure that the information was accurate and transparent. "The site reflects the latest data from the outbreak, which has previously been withheld by the State Government of Florida, or restricted to the public," Mr Jones said, according to the report.
, a data scientist, was fired by the Florida Department of Health in May after she refused to review and alter data on the new coronary pneumonia outbreak to support the government's restart plan.
people can search the site for the latest data on the outbreak, location, time and related community activities. The website aims to provide people with effective and convenient information in this large-scale public health event. What's more, according to the Palm Beach Post, Jones's data posted on the site is not the same as the state's current release, further revealing the state's problems with the objectivity of the state's outbreak data.According to the Palm Beach Post, Jones said the outbreak data she posted on the Florida New Crown Community Action Network contained more information than the state government's, such as the website that counted far more confirmed cases of new corona pneumonia than the official version; as of Thursday local time, Florida Health Department data showed 69,069 confirmed cases in the state, compared with 75,897 confirmed cases reported on Jones' website. That's because Jones also included people who tested positive for antibodies in the confirmed cases, 12 News said. Jones said the statistical method helps to observe and monitor the spread of the virus.
, the death toll posted on the website on Thursday was 2,938, while the state government's official figure was 2,848. In counting the deaths, Jones included non-Residents of Florida who were tested, 12 News said. However, in calculating confirmed cases, hospitalizations and deaths, the state government has reduced the number of confirmed and fatal cases by excluding non-Florida residents from the statistics based on their legal addresses.
the Palm Beach Post, Jones's data show that far fewer people have actually been tested for nucleic acid than state officials show. While the state health department says more than 1.3 million people have been tested for nucleic acids so far, Jones says the number of people who have actually been tested for nucleic acids is nearly 30 percent lower than the official website suggests, at about 1 million.The Palm Beach Post, the state's data algorithm may be designed to mask the still-severe state of the epidemic and try to help Gov. Ron DeSantis push ahead with an economic restart plan by weakening the potential dangers of the new coronavirus. According to the report, Governor de Santis has said that any county that wants to return to work must have a 10 percent chance of testing positive for nucleic acid.
Jones noted that the state health department replaced the "total number of tests" with "total number of tests" to reduce the probability of testing positive, thereby reducing the percentage of regional positives. Jones's statistical method, for example, shows that palm beach, Florida, has a 12 percent chance of testing positive for the new coronavirus, which is not enough to return to work;
the Palm Beach Post, Jones said Florida's cover-up of the real data was intended to accommodate Governor de Santis's desire to speed up the economic restart. She was fired for refusing to "count" outbreak data using the state's algorithm, indirectly hampering Florida's recovery program. On May 29, Florida health department workers tried to make the state's outbreak data "private" and the state's data website was shut down for a day, the report said.
, jones still has no regrets about his decision, even after being fired. "I decided to do something constructive and use my skills to do something really useful," she says. People have the right to put politics aside and to understand and understand things intuitively and objectively". Gov. DeSantis said Jones was fired because she "disobeyed orders from her superiors." However, jones was quoted as saying in an interview with CNN: "In a health crisis, if refusing to mislead the public is a 'disobedience', then I will willingly and proudly accept the term."the Palm Beach Post notes that most of the data Jones posted on the Florida New Crown Community Action Network came from undiscovered public data hidden in thousands of pages of reports or scattered PDFs. It also includes some more difficult-to-access information on hospital capacity provided by the Health Care Administration. In addition, the website includes details of each confirmed patient, including the age of the case, the date of detection and the date of diagnosis.
Jones noted that the state's official website does not allow her to provide too much information about deaths, while Jones's website includes data on patient hospitalization and death. In her view, such a move would put "humanity first" and raise awareness of the current state of the new coronavirus epidemic and the harm done to individual victims and their families.
, Jones' website also cites data from health care regulators, including the size of beds in the hospital's intensive care unit, the report said. The data provide a further demonstration of the strain on medical resources caused by the new coronavirus. In addition, Jones provides nucleic acid testing points
, which are not included in the government's announcement, on the site, including phone numbers, addresses, and appointment information for each test point to better serve the public.
created the site to show open and transparent information to the public, according to GISuser. "I set up this site because I have a lot of things that I want to make public on the state government's website, but I'm always told I can't do that," she said. People can't just stay in the fear caused by the new coronavirus, people should know about virus detection. "
