Did the WSJ call the market crash? They are no different than the MSM.

I’ve seen people congregating all over The Villages, especially in the stores. I also know many people, including myself, are praying Psalm 91 over all of you, my neighbors. The power of God is far greater than the power of a virus. If we were going to spike wouldn’t we be seeing it now? Sixty eight people out of more than 100,000 is .07%. I think rather than believing ongoing news reports about a spike coming, its time to thank God for His Divine protection.

Psalm 91
1 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High
shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
2 I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress:
my God; in him will I trust.
3 Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler,
and from the noisome pestilence.
4 He shall cover thee with his feathers,
and under his wings shalt thou trust:
his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.
5 Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night;
nor for the arrow that flieth by day;
6 nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness;
nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.
7 A thousand shall fall at thy side,
and ten thousand at thy right hand;
but it shall not come nigh thee.
8 Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold
and see the reward of the wicked.
9 Because thou hast made the Lord, which is my refuge,
even the most High, thy habitation;
10 there shall no evil befall thee,
neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.
11 For he shall give his angels charge over thee,
to keep thee in all thy ways.
12 They shall bear thee up in their hands,
lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.
13 Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder:
the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.
14 Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him:
I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.
15 He shall call upon me, and I will answer him:
I will be with him in trouble;
I will deliver him, and honour him.
16 With long life will I satisfy him,
and shew him my salvation.

This is scary since Fl hasn’t even been quarantined a month yet. What is wrong with the coidiots running this state! Are they trying to kill off the seniors and make social security last longer?

I read that Wall Street Journal article, and there were a number of errors. It seems to be the work of a stringer desperate to get her name in the paper, drawn from letters to editors and out-of-date statistics. 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.

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

We all gonna die sometime....just not all at once...
The media loves to pint out The Villages for everything, so why not this.
If the surge doesn't happen, will they be happy? Or disappointed? Inquiring minds want to know...

I would really like to know how many of the COVID virus deaths were actually people who died from influenza with pre-existing conditions and counted as COVID deaths 2018 Sumter county 29 deaths from influenza

You mean line dancers...who can't even stay a foot away from each other. And were dancing to WVLG in the squares, even though they were closed and there was yellow barrier tape put up. Yea, golfers.....

I just watched a video of a report of a study out of Stanford University. I don't know how to transfer it here...but it's pretty astounding what their findings found. Anyone whose more technically proficient than me, probably could find it and share it. Steve Deace was the one who was sharing it...if that would help. It actually gave hope instead of fear!!

[ficoguy]

Odd, how 2 communities in NJ ( Lakewood and Teaneck ) with large concentrations of religious orthodox have caused NJ's surge...but nary a word on that in the alarmist media...in fact, Gov. Murphy said any finger pointing or singling out of particular communities would be a hate crime....but it's not a hate crime to single out The Villages....

[Jacob85]

The 68 people are the ones we know about. This is so contagious and the open beaches show people in clusters it’s only a matter of time

[Stu from NYC]

Something else to look forward too. grrrr

[merrymini]

Surge? Having been cooped up for a month, not just two weeks, we can fairly assume that there will not be a surge and that this reporter is an idiot.

Stan, the state where i came from (Ct.) is counting deaths of people who pass away showing symptoms, not whether they actually had it. by doing this, they can create their own stats of how many died from corona, or died DURING the virus, but from other complications. i assume i either have it or am a carrier if i listened to all the media hysteria.

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?
Tobacco, baby powder, Round Up.....this could be huuuugggggeeeee.
