Quote:Florida tells health officials not to release coronavirus data about schools
Local health officials are barred from releasing detailed information about new COVID-19 cases in public schools because of privacy rules, a local health official said Thursday.
The number of students and school staff who are infected — or whether infections are being transmitted in classrooms ― will no longer be released by health officials, Dr. Raul Pino, the state’s health officer in Orange County, said at a Thursday briefing.
That’s a departure from earlier this week when Pino released the number of cases associated with schools as well as the number of students and staff under precautionary quarantine and a list of affected schools.
Since when do "statistics" have privacy rights?
I'm pretty sure a FoA request trumps this.
Do you mean FOIA? (Freedom of Information Act)
If so, agencies rarely hit even the 20 day response requirement which in the case of a pandemic means the data you do receive is 3 weeks old at least.
