Sure there is more testing because more people are feeling sick and therefore more sick people are being tested. You think people are just running around getting tested for no reason if they feel perfectly fine and then being found to be positive at higher rates than when this was "bad" ? Just coincidentally 1-2 weeks after Memorial Day crowds? Are more people DYING just because more are are being tested? DYING & TESTING aren't related. We remain very lucky here in the bubble at the moment but Tampa, Orlando, Jacksonville, Miami areas aren't.
Florida COVID-19 daily total of positive tests/deaths for the last two weeks:
- June 13: 2,581 / 48
- June 12: 1,902 / 29
- June 11: 1,698 / 47
- June 10: 1,371 / 36
- June 9: 1,096 / 53
- June 8: 966 / 12
- June 7: 1,180 / 12
- June 6: 1,270 / 28
- June 5: 1,305 / 53
- June 4: 1,419 / 41
- June 3: 1,317 / 36
- June 2: 617 / 70
- June 1: 667 / 9
- May 31: 739 / 4
Wait until they stuff 12,000 people into an arena in Oklahoma or 6000 in Jacksonville. Listen to the doctors and scientists not to the politicians who are trying to impress another politician.
Overall, the state has tallied 73,552 coronavirus cases. The "overall" rate of people testing positive for COVID-19 is five percent, but that rate rose to 6.2 percent on June 11, according to a DOH statement.
