this is what happens when health issues are driven by politics.

After 4th of July, we might as well sell Florida back to Spain.... They handle COVID way better than we do. The only stipulation is that Spain will make us keep Ron De santis

I feel like crying. Its so sad that an 11 year old had to die alone without his family besides him. My heart breaks.

Florida should be quarantined from the US, forever.

I'm an IT admin at a 250 bed hospital. I/we create all the EMR user accounts for doctors, nurses and staff. We can see all the EMR data. The death rate percentage is dropping lower and lower and although you might catch the virus you have a higher chance dying in an automobile accident (if you remove all nursing home deaths). 29% (so far) of admits arrive and test negative but then test positive by the second or third test - 29% are catching it in the hospital. My main point is the media is attempting to promote FEAR and racial division and attempting to make everyone afraid of each other and the media is doing this for a reason...

To all the people that don't believe in Covid-19. I hope you get it and give it to your loved ones and as you and your loved ones are in the hospital you will realize it is really when the doctor enters your room to tell you that they didn't make it. Hopefully you'll learn before this happens however it seems like it's not going to happen.

No people in Florida are coming up here to P.A. SO, my state is going from green to yellow! Thanks TRUMP!!!!

I want to know the rates at which people are dying not just the contraction rates. If a disease only kills 0.007 percent it's time to look at other ways to deal with it.

Headlines are reporting the new cases but not the number killed... Why?

[eightone]

Last I looked Florida is #4 out of all states for overall cases, and #9 for Covid deaths.Which especially doesn’t make sense because Florida is the 5th oldest state in the country with regard to median age. Is Florida somehow extra immune, or are the death numbers off?

Everyone's got to have the sickness
, cause everyone seems to need the cure.

Took care of the vaccine problem can the tax payer get some of the billions of dollars back for the development of it.

I don’t even want to think about flu season. I am not leaving the house for a while.
