Data of cases is available by zip code which while not exact does give very good approximation of TV cases. The other local website that shall not be named gives a daily report of cases including cases specifically in TV.
The state of florida covid dashboard can also be searched by zip code for case numbers. Experience use the zip code tab at the bottom left of the page

You might also wish to look at the metrics tab. Change the county to Sumter and you will see that the % of Covid tests that are positive for the last full week was 8.9% whereas it was less than 1% for the earliest week still shown, 6 weeks ago.

I cannot find death by zip code. Death by county is available.

This is an AWESOME website - so much better than the others I've been watching. Thanks so much for sharing!!!

Do google search.low number

This is a good site to go on.

I completely agree straight and to the point

It is improper to copy and paste an entire article from a copyrighted source. Instead provide a link to the source and summarize. You, I believe, can use the quote function for a small portion of the original material but you also should inform the reader of the source where it was obtained.

There can be an issue with linking to the website where you obtained that lengthy article, but there are workarounds to guide the reader to the site.

I am up North and receive healthcare benefits from the James
Lovell VA hospital . Speaking with my Doctor there , she said “ I don’t know of anyone on staff that didn’t contract Covid 19 “ . My neighbor a cook county Sheriff said “ 4 sheriff’s died of Covid 19 “ . This was not published in any media reports that I can recall . Maybe
check with your VA clinic , private clinic , hospital , nursing home or county jail , as they are required to provide any contracted diseases or deaths , to the public , by law , if your interested in that .

That is a good summary! It keeps people from getting lost in "fudgeable" numbers.

recent research is saying that the US cases is ACTUALLY about 10 times the reported cases, or about 15% of the US population.

Either, "doing the right thing" or it is in the early innings of CV and the hot spots are in the cities, like Miami and Houston, where there are freezer trucks. Will it come here strongly? There is a long way to go before that is known. Things may NOT look so rosy in the spring, 2021. Also recent research suggests that actual cases are 10 times the reported cases in the US!

Thanks for a really informative post.

And they exaggerate, embellish and outright lie in such a manner as to make The Villages look worse than the real data shows. They say the villages and then give stats for the WHOLE area.

Giving stats on how many tested positive tells us little. The only way that would matter is if EVERYONE was tested.
Hospitalizations matter
Deaths matter
And we don't have that information. If anyone can find it, I am interested in seeing it. I am tired of gloom and doom based on test results only. Test results do not show a trend in virus life or strength when there is only a handful of folks tested.

I hate copying and pasting info, but this was in the other online Villages news source that can not be named here.
