'Claude Dharamraj, who served as Pinellas County’s health director from 2006 to 2015, said of the public schools. “Schools are educators; they are not health experts. '
'But at the same time that Corcoran, a DeSantis appointee, was requiring Health Department approval to keep classrooms closed, health directors were being told not to make a recommendation at all. '
'The idea that health directors should not give school boards recommendations on such a weighty public health matter is an extraordinary shift, one that runs contrary to county health departments’ historic role, two former health directors said.“Yes, we always advise them what to do. '
'Corcoran’s emergency order pointed to one way around the state’s open-campus mandate: a waiver from state or county health officials. '
'In county after county the health directors’ refrain to school leaders was the same: Their role was to provide information, not recommendations. '
