If they are aggregating them all to one day, that makes it easier for the data miners. It looks odd on a graph, but they dont have to chase old data.

I believe that FL is back-filling death counts to the date it's attributed to.
e.g., if today they determined a death on 5/1 was actually from COVID, they up the count of 5/1 up by 1.
If those sites don't check prior days data with every daily sweep, it's getting missed, so therefore, "looks better."
I'm not 100% sure of this, but I do know they are updating data for days over the last 14 days. So a death from 5/22 could be added today.
