695,887 cases ÷ 21,000,000 Florida residents = 0.033 X 100 = 3.3% of Florida residents got the virus.

So, 3.3% of Florida residents got the virus and of those, 98% did not die.

Too many folks in TV community seem to think that every other person they encounter out in public has this thing and it simply isn't true.

Five out of a hundred people who contract Covid-19 who are my age are predicted to die.


FIVE OUT OF A HUNDRED PEOPLE WHO CONTRACT COVID-19 who are my age will die.

How old are you. I will be glad to do the math.
