LARGO, Fla. - April 10, 2021 - On Tuesday, April 13th 2021 the Pinellas County Commission will hear a presentation by unelected administrative managers and others who will proffer the confirmation biased reasons why Pinellas County needs to continue their State of Emergency and related mask mandates. The County has benefited and continues to benefit from the allocation of roughly $200,000,000 in special pandemic related funds, and the people making the presentation on behalf of the County and Department of Health work for divisions either related to the distribution of or related to the receipt and use of the the funds.
At their meetings, they give the public three minutes to speak, and then they take an unlimited time to rebut the public speakers without a chance for dialogue or clarification. At a recent meeting this week, Pinellas County commissioners referred to public citizens wishing to share their opinions as "liars" and "laughable."
In the interest of "equal time," Tampa's own Pirate Podcast, hosted by David Happe, has given the microphone to statistician Jeffrey Jacobz to explain what the Pinellas County Commissioners refuse to acknowledge :
Case positivity is up
Hospitalizations are down
Fatalities are down
The metric Pinellas County Department of Health is recommending is unrealistic and untenable
Pinellas v. Manatee County makes the case against Pinellas
Covid rates not different based on population density (per Johns Hopkins)
The special edition of the Pirate Podcast will be released on Saturday, April 10th at 8PM Eastern. It's Season 1, Episode 11 and called "The Case Against Pinellas County"
We urge all citizens to attend the upcoming Pinellas County Commission meeting on Tuesday April 13th at 9:30AM
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Board of County Commissioners is holding meetings in the Magnolia Room at the Pinellas County Cooperative Extension, 12520 Ulmerton Road, Largo, Florida.
