There's a report that just came out.

The fourteenth. Um it says the Florida Department of Health leaves its released its daily coronavirus testing report showing a statewide positivity rate of eleven percent. But Fox thirty-five noticed at some shocking positivity rates. The Florida Department of Health showed that they had a lot of labs that were a hundred percent over I mean a hundred percent positive. There's a list of those labs I can pass it down here. So there's definitely some conflict that's out there and

I want us to take a close look at this data that's out there. Um And I got some good news as far as COVID goes. Um I think, and we'll s have to see it's getting researched. I've actually had someone who lives in the area of in Texas, Odessa, Texas, but there's a Dutcher Richard Bartlett. That's got this Buddhistanide. Using zinc. Um that he's been treating his patient with he's had great success with it. And it's a y you'll know this better than me, so it's a like a steroid

with a nebulizer. Yep. That goes in weakens everything down. And people instantly feel better. Um He's been doing it. There's another guy in other part of Texas who has been doing it. Uh they say they were doing in Taiwan. And if you know if Taiwan has got two hundred Twenty five million people, they had seven cases of death. Japan I think had like under a thousand. Um I don't know how much was intense with what they did with that, but that was one of the things that was mentioned uh in his comments. So I think it's something for us to go take a

look at. Take a look at the data that's just out. There's a lot of new stuff that's just coming out here. I've actually sent it up to this to our staff as well as up in Florida, uh the state of Florida to kinda go look at this to see what's relevant, what's real, and go look at it. But just want everyone to keep keep an eye on this every step of the way. Okay.

I am friends with the CEO of Tampa General, John Corras. He used to be the CEO of North North Bay. I see that Tampa General is on here. Um number thirty-five. So I'm gonna ask him for clarification. I also see uh Morton Plant is on here. And James Haley's on here. Tryna see if there's any other ones right around here that we would know any of these folks. See what this

means.

Okay. Well I'm gonna I'm texting this to John now, so I'm not sure.
