I'm getting a little weird feeling about this concept of "Corona Virus Survivors"
Are the accolades more deserving for this than prostate cancer, colon cancer, breast cancer, etc?
I think there is a move to start a class action suit against the Federal Government for not acting soon enough by creating a class of victims.
Is Morgan and Morgan running any ads yet?

In this case, surprisingly, the ************** is probably more accurate than the WSJ. The article is a bit like those trash journalism pieces from years ago that keep being mentioned about there being waves of STDs in The Villages. Turned out there were two or three more cases than usual, but still far less than Florida as a whole. But it sold a lot of newspapers. This is the real fake news, people, yet it still ends up on the television. All those people in the town squares? Most of them looked way too young to be living here. I think they were visitors from outside The Villages. But does that get reported? No.

The Villages has almost nothing but single family homes, and nearly all have only one or two people living there, and they all have room to be outdoors in the sun. Social distancing and quarantining is easy. There is plenty of room to walk and ride bicycles or go for rides in golf carts, even if we can’t swim or golf right now. This is much safer than urban neighborhoods where people are packed together. So keep your distance, keep up your courage, don’t panic, and we will get through this.

You might want to recalculate by including an estimate for asymptomatic/undiagnosed cases. Stanford study shows 50-85 times confirmed cases have been exposed to virus.

UF test was for active virus, Stanford test was for antibodies.

Just maybe it's because they don't have enough tests to warrant wasting them on DEAD PEOPLE but rather those who may be walking around with it. People are also told to STAY home and not walk in to a hospital, Dr office, emergency care or emergency room if they have symptoms so think about how many aren't counted that actually do have it. I guess you also think all those that died and were stacked up in the morgue in the nursing home in Andover NJ just died of the flu or the 600 in the Smithfield plant just had a bad cold.
