So? It’s a virus just like a cold or the flu and you can’t hide from it. Your either going to get it or you won’t. You’ll either get over it or you won’t. It’s time people started dealing with that reality. The mortality rate is no worse than the flu. Anyone that is still paranoid needs to just stay home!

I agree with Leadbone 100%.

Responsible for ourselves?

It’s truly sad that some people refuse to make inconveniently small sacrifices so that those who are at risk for their lives due to preexisting health issues don’t have to self imprison themselves.
They either still don’t understand that they should
wear masks to be responsible for the lives of others or they simply don’t care for their fellow citizens. Whichever, they certainly can’t deny that they know it helps stop the spread!
Wouldn’t trust them in my foxhole😳

Not just Bonifay Village Dental, is also affected they were order to close

Sure the cases of virus is going up, with the numbers of people being tested it had to happen . The big question are they systematic ,probably not everyone needs to protect themselves if concerned. Not spread I heard rumors about this place or that place or so and so didn’t wear a mask . All have free will do what you can to protect yourself.

Ignorant!

davem4616 06-26-2020 06:59 AM

this was bound to happen....look at the uptick in cases in Lake and Marion County...that's were a lot of the folks that
work in TV live

be safe everyone

Jacob85 06-26-2020 07:00 AM

That is because when people start opening up things they think the virus is gone.

Lovey2 06-26-2020 07:02 AM

Thank you, Admin. That was about to get ugly, I'm sure. At least, that's where I was going.

We all know that the virus isn't going away any too soon. Safe practices have to be followed. I'd like to see all staff in TV to be required to wear masks no matter where they work. Patrons should wear masks to protect themselves and others also. It's the best way to help keep the virus under control.

Jacob85 06-26-2020 07:08 AM

The people who have died are 124,415 after only 4 months. There were 80,000 people who died from the flu all of last year! It is more contagious even from people with no symptoms and more lethal! With the flu people have a chance to get a vaccine and there is treatment. We may have some immunity to it but not to this virus as it is new! We don’t even know the long term effects and it can affect other organs and cause strokes and heart attacks. Most people who live here are in the high risk category as all over the age of 50 and most have some underlying condition.

Wear your mask people!

The “You are Paranoid if you wear a Mask” club members are going to be the cause of everything shutting down again. It is not hard to wear a mask and take precautions. What is hard for some is the adult peer pressure to not wear a mask. This is not high school and this is NOT the flu. The flu has not required the whole world to shut down in order to maintain said mortality rate. And healthcare workers and other essentials cannot choose to stay home.

There were one or two golf shop employees who tested positive for COVID-19 earlier this week. The golf shop was closed on Wednesday afternoon with a sign posted "Closed for Deep Cleaning". A phone call to the shop on Thursday was first a denial that they had been closed, but realizing they had been caught the employee stated that any questions regarding COVID-19 had to be directed to Mr. David Williams at 352-504-2196. As of this morning, Mr. Williams has chosen not to respond to those questions.

Fred is not involved in this as it is a golf shop issue.

The Villages should be out in front of this situation and be advising people, through a variety of media, that if they were in the Bonifay golf shop during the 24 hours ending June 24 at 6 PM they may have been exposed to COVID-19.

Their failure to do so is an injustice to all who live in the Villages. Let's see what they have to say.

And if you were in the Bonifay Golf Shop on June 24 and are diagnosed with COVID-19 over the next 10 days, this may be how you were infected. In addition, if you are infected, all of the people you have contact with may become infected.

Kgcetm 06-26-2020 07:25 AM

That's nonsense. It is much more lethal than the flu.
