What's this?

That's what I said? Maybe relative to your M.O. of running around

in hysterics all the time it seems that way.

I'm concerned. I just don't think it's another NY or Lombardi. I think we'll continue to see deaths trend up for a while, but nothing approaching what NY saw. I also think cases (in Florida) will peak in late July and start coming down again. People have definitely changed their behavior, but it takes a while for that to translate into lower cases.

Also fwiw, the 15K cases today were out of 143K tests, roughly double the average daily rate we have been running at. Our positive rate of 11% was the lowest in a while. But no one reports that.

But carry on with your hysterics. I can't imagine anyone taking you seriously for anything.

.....and Florida sets a new one day record with 15,000+ infections......... -- Chuck Taylor 07/12/2020 6:24PM

Positivity rate was 11%. There were 143K tests -- BocaHoo91 07/12/2020 8:42PM

Hilton, Boca et al tell us not to worry. All is well. Nothing to see here. -- WaxHoo 07/12/2020 6:40PM

I hope you're right right for, as you yourself say, the first time since -- WaxHoo 07/12/2020 8:35PM

I've been wrong about my generally optimistic view wrt covid from early on -- BocaHoo91 07/12/2020 8:49PM

I report, you decide ** -- WaxHoo 07/12/2020 8:54PM

LOL. Reporting from your bunker? ** -- hoothat 07/12/2020 8:58PM

Hopefully they're right on this but the track record isn't good. -- Chuck Taylor 07/12/2020 7:05PM

My uneducated opinion is that it is an inside disease for spreading purpose -- KCHoo 07/12/2020 7:08PM

It seems to have a seasonal pattern. Heating season and AC season ** -- Hoo TV 07/12/2020 9:58PM

15,300 new cases (median age in the 20s) equates to 1.4 deaths or so -- HiltonHeadHoo 07/12/2020 6:30PM

You think median age means they are all that age? -- KCHoo 07/12/2020 7:00PM

Nope. Point is the death rate for the new FL cases is about .0092% -- HiltonHeadHoo 07/12/2020 7:03PM

LOL ** -- KCHoo 07/12/2020 7:06PM

Tell me why I am wrong? ** -- HiltonHeadHoo 07/12/2020 7:11PM

Because you are assuming that everyone is within that age -- KCHoo 07/12/2020 8:13PM

If the median age is in the low 20s it's reasonable to assume what I did ** -- HiltonHeadHoo 07/12/2020 8:22PM

Not to mention that infections beget infections -- KCHoo 07/12/2020 8:17PM

68% of 64% is 43%. Seems almost a low % blaming him in FL -- hoodeyo 07/12/2020 3:51PM

43% who blame trump pressing for early opening does not mean 57% -- Plano Hoo 07/12/2020 5:00PM

Right, it just doesn't tell you much about the election either way. ** -- hoodeyo 07/12/2020 5:08PM

It tells you a lot of people think trump pushed states into opening early -- Plano Hoo 07/12/2020 5:19PM

I'm sure 43% of people would agree with any negative statement -- hoodeyo 07/12/2020 6:46PM

Well, there’s plenty of blame for their governors too ** -- southdenverhoo 07/12/2020 4:37PM

TDS alert -- TomKazanski 07/12/2020 3:45PM

NC too. Dem gov Roy Cooper. ** -- DexterLake 07/12/2020 6:24PM

GOP Guvna' = GOP Guvna's fault...Dem Guvna' = Trump's fault. Cali explained ** -- Tuckahokie 07/12/2020 4:12PM

Gop governors following dear leader directives. Still trump fault ** -- HiwasseeHoo 07/12/2020 4:28PM

Guess we'll see how all this translates in November, won't we. -- Shenhoo 07/12/2020 4:05PM
