Default Orlando super spreader event

Watched news this morning and noticed streets down town Orlando was full of Halloween party goers last night. Shoulders to shoulders packing streets and businesses. Some had masks and lots didn’t. I sure this probably when on in every major city. This virus not going to slow down or end IMO for very long time. People just can’t stay apart.

We have believers and nonbelievers. Disney just announced another 11,000 + at their complex in Orlando. With less testing infection rate hits 8%.

Disney World just reported laying off 11,000 workers. They didn't report 11,000 Covid cases.

Using the measures presented the same description of crowds applies at the squares in TV....but that does not carry a political bent therefore not the same like riots and demonstrations are not super spreader assignation worthy!

This thing is not going to get under control until we have an effective vaccine and the infrastructure to vaccinate in huge quantity

The experts told us in April, that when warm weather came that would have a great impact on dissolving Covid. That didn’t make any sense as warm climates had outbreaks. Now many countries are going through an uptick. Will there be flu and common colds this year. I hear they may be lumped into Covid cases. Now I hear that different strains of Covid will make their debuts making the vaccine non effective in many cases. I suppose we just must realize these folks just don’t know. The media reports and makes up some juicy stories as if they enjoy listening to themselves!

I’ve seen an uptick in cases in Sumter starting on the 29th, a week after the event. That day we had 37 cases, most of which were over age 65. Usually when Sumter reports that big of number they are younger, and tend to be cases from the correctional facility in Bushnell. Even today they reported 13 cases, which sounds low until you realize the cases reported the last few Sundays were 0 and 7. We don’t test much on Saturdays...

Hospitalizations ticked up a little, but not much. The day of the rally Sumter had 10 hospitalizations, today they have 12.

I watched closely but did not see any upticks a week after the squares opened which surprised me. So they are handling the squares pretty safely.

All of this could be a coincidence, as We are lagging the State of Florida’s numbers a bit. They started going up several days before the county did.

“Live free or die”is the state motto of New Hampshire. Here in Florida it’s “live free then die.” Oh well.
