let's bring in the reporter who broke in story on the palm beach post to give us the details and thease. so first of all tell me about the disparity between what we knew in april and what we found out later in june. >> well, the state's legislative session had ended the end of march. the legislature voted overwhelmingly to reorganize and shrink the florida department of health and close this 60-year-old tuberculosis hospital where difficult cases had been sent. tb can take six months to cure in an uncomplicated case. for someone who has h.i.v. diabetes or cancer and is may be a drug abuser, mental health issues doesn't take their medicines, it could take two years or more, particularly if it's a drug-resistant strain. the community can order them confined until they're no longer contagious. holley florida was the place where that would happen. the state law required that that hospital be closed by january 1st. but i believe for financial reasons they rushed it and closed it six months ahead of time. during this period where they were rushing the hospital and finding places for 36 peo

now palm beach post reporter stacy singer broke this story when she got ahold of april report she discovered the first outbreak occurred in jacksonville in two thousand and eight but state and county officials failed to contain the disease because the health department in the county home in jacksonville ran out of money and with even worse officials there actively sought to keep the public in the dark and have done so since the first outbreak four years ago this is what stacy wrote it was early february when duvall county health department officials felt so overwhelmed by the sudden spike in tuberculosis that they asked the u.s. centers for disease control and prevention to become involved that's what singers reported believing at the outbreak a fact that only their underclass the health officials made a conscious decision not to tell the public repeating a decision they had made in two thousand and eight when the same strain had appeared in an assisted living home for people with schizophrenia now you don't want is for anyone to have another reason why people should turn their backs on the

according to the report obtained by the palm beach post. most of the sick were poor black men. and 3,000 people in the past two years have had close contact with contagious people at jacksonville's homeless shelters. the cdc issues a stern warning saying the high number of deaths in this outbreak emphasizes the need for vigilant active case finding, improved education about tb, and ongoing screening at all sites with outbreak cases. this report allegedly went unseen by key decision makers in florida and the public was not made aware of anything until early june. ag holly state hospital ended up closing three months after the federally issued warning on july 2nd. earlier today, scott's office denied the secrecy allegation, however, the hospital was still closed after the report. as a former hospital corporation executive, scott should have known tuberculosis is highly contagious and is the world's second biggest infectious killer. we should also point out that governor scott will not expand medicaid as outlined by the affordable care act. his state will lose billions of dollars
