Huh? 333 labs in Florida reported 100% positive tests, did not report any negatives. I don't know how many labs in Florida process tests, but there are lots of them

So far I have seen two news reports in counties where they have noticed this problem.

COVID test positivity is not a meaningful statistic because not all negatives are reported - Alachua Chronicle
