That doesn't mean they are wrong, it just means they are the best that we can come up with, based on maybe things, like people not being diagnosed, and people having co-morbidity, etc. etc. etc.

Science isn't perfect, but it is better than the alternative.

I had the Rona as well. If God appeared and told me that I had to get the flu or the Rona, my choice, there would be no hesitation. I’ll take the Rona over the flu any day.

The report was by the PlamBeachPost.com, which is behind a paywall, so not not something I heard someone say.

Sorry to disappoint you.

Please provide a link to the article. By the way, there is data and you can read it

HERE. Updated as of today.

One county just over 100% at 104 for having had one shot. Not multiple counties. None near 200%. None over 100% for full vaccination.

It is allowed to cut and paste a limited amount of an article. So if you can't link, you could cut and paste the paragraph that shows what you claim the article reports

My Google search was: "Florida vaccination rates over 100%" Without the quotes. I make NO claims to the accuracy of either article (there are more, keep scrolling through my search results).

And now we are finally seeing more reports on tests regarding natural immunity and how effective it is against hospitalization or death as vaccinations are. Everyone is affected differently. I’m just so glad to be living in our Florida state through everything.

Agreed. It’s over. Move on. I believe THEY are reporting flu cases…as C19. Gotta keep the numbers and fear high.

Seems like one article is simply a reprint of the other...

Question is, are either correct?

Let's PLEASE move on from Covid.

Marine1974 04-01-2022 06:35 AM

Actually if you think about it , Covid cases are underreported due to many people with Covid and no symptoms do not get tested but spread the virus .
You might inquire with the health department about the sewage treatment plants , what they are finding when testing for diseases .

Marine1974 04-01-2022 06:43 AM

The hospital workers taking care of
sick Covid patients care . They Risk their lives and their families who they come home too .

Don’t care much about numbers anymore

Really ??? My mother in law was fully vaccinated and died of Covid!

Marine1974 04-01-2022 06:52 AM

ICU staff , hospital staff , doctors offices , nursing home staff , the paramedics and I’m missing many others who care about the risk of caring for sick covid patients . I can only imagine how they all feel
about folks that don’t care .
