In the 3 counties where the Villages has a presence (Sumter, Lake, Marion) the population is 855,000. The normal daily death rate from all causes is 16 per 1,000. 8.2 out of 1,000 of those are due to auto accidents, so the non-auto death rate is 7.8. The current death total from CV19 is 26, which is 3.2 per 100,000. 70% of those who have died are over 70, and have co-morbidity factors - namely ( diabetes, obesity, heart disease, asthma ) which reduces the odds a normal person in generally good health will die. What we need to worry about is the immense overreach government has taken and is not going to slowly let go.
