Maybe never. Just be prepared.

Exactly!

What exactly are the number of deaths in The Villages? All I see are stats about the counties.

Agree open them. Probably safer then dancing inside at the restaurants or having driveway parties that interfere in neighborhoods. Seriously people are gathering. If you are at risk it is Your responsibility to protect Yourself. Wear the mask or stay home.

Stay closed

2025 from what I hear.

I would go if they re-open!

More people die of the flu than the virus!

If they open we wouldn’t go anyway, but what about you? This seems to be improbable given the age and vulnerable population of The Villages. Wishful thinking on some residents part perhaps.

As we learned this week from the CDC own numbers, that only 6% of the deaths from Covid involved people that did not have other problems, we've been at the worst totally lied to at the least misinformed about this whole thing...Bring back the squares for the people that want to go and for the others that are waiting for a vaccine or too scared to go to a restaurant...stay at you own comfort level....wear your mask while playing golf..wear you mask while driving alone in your car or cart...stay home watching netflix...as for me..I choose to reopen everything...if you've stopped drinking...good for you...BUT you don't have to drink to to sit and listen to music or to dance.....I prefer to dance and I'm not afraid of my car radio giving me a virus...

Most if not all medical experts (those with an actual medical degree) will tell you that avoiding large gatherings and practicing social distancing will reduce the spread of the virus and thus the number of cases and ultimately deaths. So you are advocating no precautionary measures which will lengthen the pandemic and death? This is what you want to push on everyone?

Pretty sure that Communism is not the right qualifier here. If over 50% of Americans support the precautionary measures that would be democratic no?

we're still awaiting the vaccine for aids, remember ?

I moved here about 6 weeks ago. This is the way I decided to look at the many things that are not happening now. I don't miss what I never had as far as entertainment. I do, however, love living in a place that is like living on a resort anywhere I go. It is beautiful everywhere and the people are all friendly. Anything added in the future is a plus to me. I love living here and will love it even more when everything comes back to normal

Get busy living or get busy dying.

My girlfriend’s father died of it in Jupiter, Florida, Sunday night. Her mother has survived the virus and is now testing negative, but it has seriously exacerbated her dementia, so when her husband of 66 years died, she said, “Oh, that’s too bad.” No tears.

This doesn’t seem serious or real until you or your loved ones get it. I know a woman whose 22 year old son got it, survived, but now may need a pacemaker due to ventricular fibrillation.

If you get it, you’ll wish you had been more careful, no matter how careful you were.
