Default Extracting data from alternate rows

I need some help with a macro to "fix" some data downloaded for me but
in a format my clients can't use. The first column is a label (county
names) in merged cells containing 2 rows, one column. I'd like to put
them into a single unmerged cell, still in Column A.
The second column (B) contains labels for the rows that I want to be
labels for the Columns, "Count" & "Col %", alternating every other row.

Col C contains first the data count, then the percentage of the state
total below it, then the next county count, then percentage, etc in
alternating rows. I'd like the count in column B next to the percentage
in Col C. Columns D and E have the same situation as column C, and I
want the percentages "pulled out" and put next to the counts. So it
looks like this:

Col A Col B Col C Col D Col E A (2
vert. merged "Count" xxx zzz bbb cells)
"Col %" yyy aaa ccc

and so forth.

What I want is:

Col A Col B Col C Col D Col E Col F Col G
"Count" "Col%" "Count" "Col %" "Total" "%"
A (in single xxx yyy zzz aaa bbb ccc
unmerged cell)

and so forth for the rest of the counties.

I hope this makes some sense. Can anyone help me with the code to move
the data into straight columns?
Thanks in advance.
