The numbers are not at all surprising to me. Here's why:
a) Half the US population didn't get vaccinated.
b) When most don't - and time goes on - COVID-19 mutates to different strains - stronger and more transferable.
c) Given this now very strong new mutation - and people getting sick and even dieing- more people are getting vaccinated.
e) And hospitals are getting overrun - again - which is constantly in the news...
d) Although more are getting vaccinated - even Governor Desantis (despite his mask opinion) has encouraged vaccination.
e) THEREFORE: the correlation is NOT MEDICAL. It is MORE getting vaccinated - because they hear MORE getting sick - which means you would expect both to INCREASE at the same time.
Hope that helps.
PS: The FOX news challenge has been VERY INTERESTING. They didn't share with the viewers what THEY and the GOVENORS office shared are the ACCURATE numbers. Those are about 20% less than the numbers they are challenging. BUT EVEN IF FOX is right with the new numbers - CONGRATULATIONS - FLORIDA IS STILL NUMBER 1. (Laughed when I first calculated this - but - not really funny. From the people who brought you the BIG LIE - and their audience that still believes it - FAKE facts permeate 30% of our fellow neighbors.)
