According to the Florida Health Department website, my zip code 32162, has had 54 cases but the last new case was reported 14 days ago on April 29, 2020 and the one prior to that was reported on April 20, 2020. Are any of those cases still active?
I am not trying to minimize the threat, but obtain a more accurate assessment of the currently existing threat than is provided by sixty some days of historical data. As a retired military member, I know that a current threat assessment is critical to planning for future actions to increase the odds for ultimate victory against this virus.
Can anyone tell me where to find this data?

For Marion County, the Ocala newspaper has daily updates which usually lists new cases, hospitalizations, deaths etc. Covid 19 averages about 30 days from symptoms to death so if no death they are recovered. The threat is seen by new infection rates, the death rate is x for given ages, if infections go up that's bad, if down the threat is lower.
