You are right, that's why it's better to look at the positivity rates from "First time positive" tests which are shown on
Home | Florida Department of Health COVID-19 Outbreak
You are also right that deaths are way down, which is good news probably meaning either the virus is becoming less virulent, medical care is getting better, or infected people are getting a lower dose of the inoculate perhaps because they are following guidelines.
As for hospitalizations, though, I believe they are up, not down.
