Florida Department of Health

The shutting down of the historic Gato building on Simonton Street displaced the administrative offices for several municipal agencies, including the Florida Department of Health in Monroe County.

State regulators didn’t do anything wrong when they rejected Green Thumb Industries' requests to open dispensaries near or adjacent to convenience stores, an administrative law judge ruled.

The Florida Board of Medicine fined and reprimanded Dr. Candace Sue Cooley, who did not comply in 2022 with a law requiring 24-hour waiting periods before abortions can be performed.

RSV was in full swing throughout November, but vaccine levels for it and other respiratory diseases remain low - especially in high-risk populations.

The Florida Department of Health in Monroe County is temporarily relocating its Healthy Start services and WIC program due to the closure of the Gato Building in Key West.

The health department sent "letters of intent" to the group, but the move sets up what could be lengthy litigation from applicants that missed out on a rare chance to join the state's medical pot industry.

The Florida Department of Health in Monroe County, one of several agencies operating out of the historic Gato building, is moving its clinic.

The judge ruled that Floridians Protecting Freedom, the committee that supported the failed effort to get Amendment 4 passed, could not show “irreparable harm.”

Attorneys for the administration filed a document accusing the coalition sponsoring Amendment 4 of “intentionally spreading false factual information” about the state's six-week abortion law.

The former top lawyer with the health department signed an affidavit stating that state attorneys wrote a letter under his name and told him to mail it to TV stations threatening legal action over a Yes on 4 ad.
