No, it was not, V. My statement was nearly verbatim. Did you not read the direct quotes from the article?
Yours was only an indirect quote, V, by the article, not a direct quote of the press secretary.
The accusations of falsehood simply don't apply. The problem lies with your own posts.

Though somewhat amusing, that martyr complex stuff really isn't warranted, especially here. Just because your posts here are content challenged doesn't mean you are being personally attacked.

And while we're at it, your posts have offered nothing of substance, even when it was repeatedly requested. They are akin to "Well, if you don't know, I'm certainly not going to tell you." Yet, if someone were to try to deal with them as is, the common response tends to be accusations of "mind reading."

Nearly verbatim means it was not an accurate rendering, and therefore my statements stand unrefuted. When someone misrepresents what I said, that represents a personal attack.

"Seeking reinstatement" is not the same as "receiving treatment." Full Stop

Entirely and woefully wrong.

Here is what was quoted in your post (#48) from the OP article:

A spokesperson for Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’s office said that more than half of those who are seeking monoclonal antibody treatment in the south of Florida are “fully vaccinated” individuals amid supply issues.​

That is an indirect quote, i.e., a paraphrase, of what she actually said.

However, the article immediately followed with a direct quote:

“More than half the patients getting the monoclonal antibody treatment in south Florida are fully vaccinated,” DeSantis spokeswoman Christina Pushaw wrote in response to a comment on Twitter that suggested that only unvaccinated people are the reason why there is a significant demand for monoclonal antibodies.​

My statement in post #47 was nearly verbatim: "An article is posted which quotes the DeSantis press secretary stating over half of those getting the treatment in south Florida are vaxxed."

Furthermore, earlier, in post #41, I provided her directly quoted tweets from the article linked in post #6, and even repeated that link.

Then that clearly categorizes some of your own posts here as personal attacks on me. Nearly verbatim does not mean inaccurate. There is no good excuse for twisting what I said or accusing me of posting falsehood or accusing me of personally attacking you. You are entirely wrong in this matter and condemn yourself.

Note RT attacks me for making accurate statements, and says his inaccurate statements are accurate.

But all this is side show, as my questions were never answered.
What is the ratio of those receiving the anti-body treatment, un-vaccinated to vaccinated? Is it not true the vast majority of those receiving the anti-body treatment are unvaccinated? Hint, one clinic reported about 70% of those receiving the anti-body were unvaccinated!!!

Was that mendacious, hypocritical reply supposed to serve as a refutation of this?

On and on this poster disparages me, but never answers the question or says he does not know the ratio. Nuff said...

And the pneumonia vaccine. And the shingles vaccine (I'm actually getting that one....had Chickenpox .... do NOT want shingles).

My wife has a horrible case of shingles and not only had the older vaccine for shingles but also had the Shingrix vaccine over a year ago. Maybe she would have had a worse case of shingles, but I don't see how. She has suffered every day with them for over three months and it is getting worse. Unfortunately, just getting the vaccine is no guarantee against contracting them.

Praying for comfort. My father-in-law had shingles. I know it is rough.

I well remember when “the science” said it had nothing to do with chicken pox and dismissed as ignorant those who insisted they were witnessing a strong correlation.
