I'm not sure what the population of The Villages is and I'm not sure if anyone actually does. I recall it being reported as 130,000 a few years ago before south of 44 opened. I'm guessing that it has to be around 150,000 now.
But either way, there have been 82 cases reported in The Villages.
Now some people say that only a percentages of the actually infections are being reported. Some say that the report number is only about 10% of the actual number of cases.
If that's the case, we're looking at 820 cases out of a population of somewhere between 130,000 and 150,000 people. That's between .0063% and .0055%.
I'm beginning to be less and less concerned about this virus.
I do wonder why some areas have like NYC and Miami have such high infection rates and other's like The Villages, which has a pretty high population density has such a low rate.
