Original Note:
The claim that Florida had the third-highest COVID death rate is misleading as it does not account for Florida’s large population. According to the CDC, in 2020 Florida had one of the lowest rates of Covid deaths per capita, ranking 40th. In 2021, Florida ranked 14th: https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/pressroom/sosmap/covid19_mortality_final/COVID19.htm
