You mean the 132 deaths reported yesterday, "Florida's deadliest day ever"

Check the dashboard, only 17 actually died yesterday, the rest from earlier dates. You don't know the true death rate until about a month after the fact.

The death rate has ticked upward in the last month. You would expect that with so many new cases. But median age of new cases has been 35-40 so the people who are dying are the people in that age group that have pre existing health problems (healthy people under 50 rarely die) and older people who are out there mixing it up and taking too many chances.

I think this surge of new cases will peak before the end of the month and then start going down. We are not going to be another New York
