Alternate statistical sites? The link I posted in this thread goes hospital occupancy rates all over Florida that is updated daily and is run by a Florida State agency

The Agency For Health Care Administration

There’s no confusion. The cdc and Dr Fauci have guidelines posted. Just read them. Everyone wear a mask, social distance and hand washing. That can’t be any easier to understand. People just are not following the guidelines.

Young people are having Covid parties to see who can get the virus first. Shaking my head at these people who think they are invincible.

Cases of COVID-19 are increasing in Florida and locally. Today, there are 549 cases in Sumter County, with 162 occurring in the last week. In Lake County, there are 2,158 cases with 674 occurring in the last week. In Marion County, there are 1,156 cases with 379 occurring in the last week. As of this morning, there are 15 patients in the UF The Villages Hospital and 36 in UF Leesburg Hospital.16 of these patients are in intensive care.

The upward trend is accelerating and the number of known cases among 15- to 35-year-olds is surpassing those of adults aged 55 and older. While younger individuals are typically more able to tolerate and survive the infection, older individuals are at higher risk for more serious outcomes related to this infection.

Number of deaths in Sumter county in the past 8 weeks: 1

If you would like the best Florida information about the virus,check out this site. It is far and away more informative and accurate than anything else you will find. The site in interactive. Beyond the base data that is displayed, you can click on any particular county on the map and the statistics for that county will come up.

There IS somone in charge - it is YOU and ME. We all know the facts. Some ignorant people aren't wearing masks despite every official on public health person is telling you to wear a mask. CONFRONT every person you see without a mask - it is our duty to wear masks.

Unfortunately I knew the one victim this past week. His family (including 2 young children) are absolutely devastated. This disease is a killer.

Ware a mask, wash your hands and use sanitizer, stay away from crowds, and take charge of yourself.

I believe that Fox 35 reported that one lab was reporting all positives. It is not "all political propaganda manipulated to create panic".

Two people that we have known for more than fifty years died earlier this month in Cincinnati. They were securely and happily and delightfully married to each other and their children were friends of our children and I taught two of their granddaughters in nursery school. These very real people died within days of each other of Covid-19. We had enjoyed pictures of them earlier in the year enjoying family get togethers and in good health for their age. Two of our friends here in The Villages were sickened with Covid-19 after eating with a group of ten at Orange Blossom Gardens on St. Patrick's day. Six of the group became sick with the virus. Our friends, one was hospitalized in Ocala in intensive care for ten days and the other was very sick at home and had to be taken by ambulance to emergency room for dehydration. It isn't a seasonal virus. It is a nasty bug that is particularly dangerous to people over 65.

I am aggravated that the numbers that we are given on cases are suspect. I am mad that we cannot trust our own government for the truth and I am very aware that if we close down business we all will suffer enormously and that too will dangerously affect us all. Life runs on money.

All we can do is stay away from groups and wear a mask and wash our hands and try not to harm people who say it is all a hoax. It is a political football to be sure in my opinion.

And I just read back on the past posts of this poster and I usually agree with him. I just get so tired of people saying this isn't a dangerous situation for us.

>> Can't you answer these questions for yourself?<<

Only if you have the data and the data is accurate. The OP is correct.

If someone “confronts” me....it is not going to end well. I wear a mask when I feel I need to, but the “mask police” need to get a grip.
As for the response elsewhere that ONE lab had misreported numbers...read the info...it was a lot more than one ...

If you are concerned with facts, you know the masks do nothing. ZIP. The numbers are all padded. We all know it. Everyone knows it. We also know why it's happening. The silent majority is smarter than you may think.
