Florida abortion clinics inundated as nearby states clamp down

Description

Women seeking abortions are travelling miles to this clinic in Jacksonville, Florida after their own states clamped down on the procedure. While Florida has reduced its window for abortions to the 15th week of pregnancy -- it was previously the 24th week -- the state's laws are still among the most permissive in the southeast United States since the Supreme Court's stunning reversal of the nationwide right to abortion.

  • Florida COVID-19 Whistleblower Agrees To Turn Herself In For 'Bogus' Arrest Warrant

    Last year, data scientist Rebekah Jones was fired by the Florida Department of Health. Part of her job was to work on the state's COVID-19 dashboard. But the data scientist was fired in May after she said she refused to alter data related to the pandemic in the state. However, she continued to publish her own Florida COVID-19 data independently, through her own dashboard. In December, Florida law enforcement raided her home, brandishing weapons at her young children. They seized computers, phones, and external storage drives in connection with an alleged hack. Now, Business Insider reports an arrest warrant has been issued for Jones, although it's not clear with what crime Florida officials plan to charge. Jones has agreed to turn herself in, calling the charges 'bogus' and an attempt to silence her for being a scientist critical of the government.
