They didn’t leave people to die in Italy that are over 60. They are treating them but being very picky on who is more likely to benefit from a respirator.

Yes a few dancers on the floor well spaced.
However, all four streets around the square plus the grounds facing the lake were full of people tail gating, tables and chairs set up or just standing around....hundreds....no attention to social distancing whatsoever.

They are all contributors to TV having more confirmed cases of the virus.

Shame on all of them.......they are the reason for needing hard quarantines with enforcement.

We also drove by Spanish Springs square....almost completely vacant.

Almost zero traffic out and about.....it appears most people are staying home.
Spanish Springs gets crowded mostly by people from outside of The Villages normally.

Because the Villages is playing the music from the radio station loudly at the squares. I see a group of about 15 to 20 who congregate together every evening at SS also over by the drink shack across from Katie Belle's

I have several neighbors who really, truly, believe this is all a political hoax to hurt the President. If someone really believes that you are never, ever, going to get through to them until they, or someone close to them, gets the virus.

After which they will find a way to place the blame elsewhere rather than upon themselves.
