The numbers reported are all positive antigen tests done in Florida. It has nothing to do with driver's licenses or snowbirds or immigration status. It simply means someone had a nasal swab [usually] and it was positive. It does not count any person who had Covid symptoms and either tested negative or was not tested and died or was seen without testing being done despite the clinical situation fitting Covid. It will not include people who have antibody tests to show they are "immune" which the test may not really show.

The number is not meant to reflect active cases, it is the total that have occurred since the pandemic. The dashboard shows you how many are Floridians vs visitors and also you can dig down and look at ages and counties and localities. You can also see that about 700 children under 15 have tested positive. I am pretty sure they don't have licenses.

If you want to know "active" cases I'd suggest looking at the graphs showing new cases by date. Any case within the last 14 days would still be new enough that it would be considered potentially infectious. Look at the Florida DOH dashboard and select See State Report in the box Review case, monitoring and PUI information on the latest COVID-19 Report.

Go down a bit and you can see the 14 day report. It is showing about 700 new cases a day over the last 2 weeks, steadily, not going down and not because of increased testing.
