Can you link us to those statistics? I was just thinking the opposite. I have been closely following the deaths in Sumter, Lake and Marion counties and Lake is higher than us, but the highest death toll are in the two counties around Miami. Thank you to Blueash for pointing out it was RATE...percentage discussed here.

Also someone on this thread said that the seasonal flu shot was not a vaccine. That is incorrect; Key Facts About Seasonal Flu Vaccine | CDC

Also someone said that they don't appreciate the posts from the M.D.s who live here. I certainly do and I know that many do as well.

There is a lot of misinformation circling about. A lot of it is simply because we have not had enough time and statistics to really evaluate the hard data that changes every day. The world has only been following this completely new and dangerous virus since late November when the outbreak and deaths were first reported in Wuhan in China.
