The Daily Sun
 
Absent from the Daily Sun yesterday and today are statistics related to Covid 19. Does this mean that the official Villages opinion is that the Global Pandemic is over? No longer necessary to report on the 2000+ new cases in Florida, the number of new cases and deaths in The Villages which would not be supportive of reopening of Town Squares, Rec Centers etc.

Noticed that also and surprised and disappointed they seem to have stopped it.

Aww come on folks. Have you not been following how other cities/countries have been handling the china flu?

Also that newspaper isn't owned by the villages. If you don't feel comfortable then don't go. Stay in...worry...overreact...

Thanks I missed it. Glad to see it is down so much heading in right direction.

I believe the paper is owned by the developer

Let's see what happens after spring break this coming year.

It's in the paper--just not on its front page. Saw it today.

The day-in-day-out statistics updates only propagate fear and loathing. Have we ever seen daily flu or other disease stats now or in the past? CNN constantly reports these stats daily on their screen. For what purpose? I'll opine that it's all about keeping us fretful, scared and to some extent to impose satiable power over the masses. It's nonsense. Enough is enough. Just take precautions, and get on with your darn lives. :boxing2:

Until you get covid; then we shall see what your reaction is. Hopefully a mild case not like my neighbor on a ventilator for 2 months.

Its a local small paper that hardly ever says anything of substance so why the surprise? People here think they live in a Utopia and the paper reflects that and always has. Besides the fact it was in yesterdays and todays papers, just not slammed on the front page. We all know the virus is here, know how to protect outselves so do we actually need daily numbers?? If nervous, stay home. Otherwise, go out and live life. There is no conspiracy so that the squares can open.

I think it is useful and helpful to know how we are doing fighting this disease

Totally agree. If anyone doesn’t want to know, they don’t have to read it. I’d rather have the knowledge
