Florida had another 14,000 today. This is the third time in the last week or so we've been around 15,000. We'll be having 500,000 a month soon at this pace. Soon ,it will be easier just to count the people that don't have it.
What the heck? 10000 yesterday and another 14000 today? Wow - that must be a record. Don't you have a lot of retirees as well?
I tried to go to the drive thru testing site here this morning but it was too busy so I just decided to wait for another day. I don't have any symptoms. They took my temperature at the doctor's this morning and it was normal
Stay safe!
Our numbers are going up rapidly. We have been between 10,000 and 15,000 a day for the past week. About 3 weeks ago we were approximately 4,000 to 5,000 per day. 3 weeks from now, we should really be up there. Some cities are running out of hospital space.

Nope, been no casualties for a week actually. We are one of the best in the world when it comes to combating this. But why is that? By NOT opening things up.

In Florida, there was this push to open things up but there are still some government offices that have never opened. They pushed for the private sector to open but kept some of the government closed. Sounds a little hypocritical.

Speaking of hypocritical, the Prime Minister said that he is visiting the north to demonstrate that he cares about the whole. My response: um ... isn't there a Pandemic going on?

Florida has 8,800 cases today. The numbers are high but at least we seem to be leveling off. Mask wearing started getting serious a couple weeks ago and I think that has helped.

So far they are saying that the classes will go ahead as scheduled, i.e. 2020 - 21 semester will go on as planned. They say that there will be Social Distancing and the like. Will that happen? Not sure. They are saying that there will be different classes with regards to students attendance, will this happen? I'm not sure. The whole Exam season was a mess and I would be surprised if they plan something of this like and it works. Why don't they just postpone the semester to 2021, like other UK universities are doing? But the institution I go to if for profit, so apply from that what you will.
