I am not very concerned. I look at the amount of deaths attributed to COVID19 in the Sumter Co. area of the Villages. The last I checked, it was no higher than 8 or 9 deaths total. Only one in the last couple of weeks. There are a lot of seniors living in the Sumter Co. portion of the Villages, so the chances are pretty low that I will catch it and if I do, perish from it. Selfish? Most of us are more concerned about our own family before others.
We have more infected because we are finding out by testing hundreds more than before. Look at the line of those waiting at Laurel Manor or at one of the other places. I had to go inside of CVS to get my wife's meds because of the long drive up line waiting to be tested. Most of those tested have NO symptoms and never will.
Tell me that the death rate explodes and I will be concerned. Tell me that the hospital beds in The Villages are full of infected, then I will be concerned. Otherwise, it's all just Mass Hysteria as far as I am concerned.
Wear your mask, gloves, eye protection and wash your hands and you will feel much better about it.
