So double that and you might see 60 in 2 days. And in 2 more days, 120. And so on, and so on. "Only" is never only.

The governor, Rick Scott, announced that he has been exposed to it and is in self-quarantine as a result.
How did Rick Scott become governor again? He got sick of working, so he got elected to a federal government position.

Rick Scott is now a United States Senator. Ron DeSantis is presently The Governor of Florida.

My estimation is Rick Scott was a Great Manager during Irma and on other issues. He continues to be a good example to the people of Florida as he has Self-Quarantined himself. I think he is a fantastic communicator. How many people feel the symptoms and continue to go on about their daily chores? Some are living on a shoestring and have no choice. It's a shame but its reality.
Did Sen. Scott have a test? I’m not understanding why people (predominantly politicians) think they’ve been exposed but don’t get tested. Then they go into self quarantine when if they have the test, they’d know for sure they’re positive. What am I missing?

The hospital is ALWAYS FULL and that is why thenER gets backed up for hours before patients can get a room.

Just as a gauge for timeline - John wrote the above on the 11th, 4 days ago.

As of today there are a total of 136 confirmed cases including 4 deaths for Florida.

So the rate of increase is not as fast as some have predicted (including myself) but it "only" has not been an appropriate word to use in this situation for the past 4 days.

When you tell Mother Mature "you're only"...doing something, Mother Nature responds, "hold my beer."
