Yet, with almost no Covid mandates Florida still has faired better than the states with extreme mandates, like NY, PA, MI & CA. Care to explain that?!?

Well, there is that saying "seniors live an average of ten more years here in the Villages than in the rest of the country" whether that is right or wrong. Perhaps it has something to do with Florida's old folks longevity? Or, maybe it is the warm weather? Or, maybe Covid is just over stated and over mandated everywhere else? Yeah, that's the ticket!
