One more query.....do those who are all about their freedoms and refuse to wear masks also defy the guideline to social distance and continue to congregate in groups?

To click or not to click (on the thread). That is the question.

The reality is that it hasn't really been an "explosion" comparetively. This is copied from Today's Leesburg Commercial;
"LEESBURG — Lake County added 67 positive COVID-19 cases to its rolls from Sunday to Monday, according to the Monday update from the Florida Department of Health. Sumter added 16 confirmed cases in that time. That brings the total count to 10,151 cases in Lake County and 3,308 in Sumter. Lake County also recorded one new COVID-related death. Sumter added no new deaths. The local fatality total is now 337 — 92 in Sumter County and 245 in lake. In Lake, the fatality rate stands at 2.43% among residents. In Sumter, it's 2.8%. Both are higher than the state average of 1.94% among positive residents. Meanwhile, the daily rate of positivity increased in both counties from Sunday to Monday. A total of 2.93% of the 596 tests received Monday in Sumter County were positive, compared to 1.8% Sunday. Of the 760 test results reported in Lake Monday, 7.88% of them were positive, up from 5.5% Sunday. In Florida overall, the state reported the results of 86,955 tests Monday and 6.99% or 6,080, were positive. As Thanksgiving approaches, the CDC has recommended people avoid traveling for the holiday. Still some will take the risk. Locally, Adult Medicine of Lake County and the county itself have partnered to offer free rapid testing, which could help residents make responsible decisions when it comes to traveling and family gatherings. Rapid testing at the Lake Square Mall in Leesburg goes from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Saturday. They are closed on Thanksgiving Day. Individuals with insurance must bring a photo ID. Testing is available for children ages 3 and oup. Here's a breakdown of confirmed cases by city: Lake Clermont: 2,694 Leesburg: 1,720 Tavares: 908 Eustis: 852 Mount Dora: 795 Groveland: 698 Lady Lake: 464 Minneola: 266 Sorrento: 263 Mascotte: 252 Fruitland Park: 235 Umatilla: 220 Montverde: 153 Grand Island: 118 Howey-in-the-Hills: 79 Astatula: 74 The Villages: 59 Astor: 50 Altoona: 43 Paisley: 42 Yalaha: 36 Okahumpka: 19 Ferndale: 5 Deer Island: 3 Mount Plymouth: 3 Bella Collina: 3 Deer Island: 3 DeLand: 1 Missing: 1 Sumter The Villages: 1,042 Coleman: 716 Wildwood: 521 Bushnell: 419 Oxford: 170 Webster: 135 Lake Panasoffkee: 98 Center Hill: 71 Sumterville: 62 Lady Lake: 54

That said: No, I will not refuse to get vaccinated based on politics or hysteria. I will make the decision when the time comes. I don't get the flu vaccination because I do not get the flu and rarely get a cold. When I do get a cold it will not last more than two days. I may or may not get the C19 shot. I think I would probably get checked for antibodies first, and if it shows that I have resistance to the virus, I may obtain from it in the beginning so that others that need it more can get it. I wear masks when I deem it appropriate, based on my sense, not someone else's. I attempt to social distance all the time, regardless of the disease of the month. I do not like groups so I do not "congregate." I do not approve of mandates because I believe that most folks can use their own common sense. And those that have no common sense usually have a short lifespan, so it's no skin off my back what they do as long as it is not obviously dangerous to me or mine. I do not consider someone not wearing a mask to be dangerous UNLESS they have the disease. I do not live on the premise of "what if." I live on fact based common sense and gut felling. It has served me well for 70 years. For those that NEED someone to protect you, I suggest checking into a "care facility." There are leaders and there are followers. AND there are those that lead from behind (AKA lemmings or followers). Gotta love the fancy way a certain politician used to claim he was "leading from behind." How could anyone follow someone like that? Nuff said. A big NO on mandates, period.
