The key question is why? It can't be because they are going down at a rapid pace since today, there were 113 new cases. If you go to the local "Village News" you will find them as a highlight of the news. The question is why the most notable paper in the Village's is downplaying the numbers. My best guess is allegedly since the paper is indirectly controlled by the Developer/Owner of the Villages it will only report the news to protect the sale of homes vs need to know by the residents. Sad state of affairs when allegedly home sales overrules public knowledge and safety?
Very strange when you have to hunt for news that is rather important to the residents here.

It does appear that the paper does not want us to know the current statistics.
