..Yesterday, the CDC reported Florida’s COVID data, something that is part of a normal cycle after a weekend, claiming that the Sunshine State saw over 28,000 new cases on Sunday. That would have been a record high, and it helped drive another round of anti-Florida media coverage.
Thank you. I am just praying he comes through. It’s hard not being there- and I can’t ask my normal 1000 questions. The family is on survival mode. I’m just busy doing anything.
If you don't mind me asking, why can't you be there? I'm very sorry for you to be going through this. Last summer my husband had surgery to remove a melanoma in the lung and I was prohibited to be there because of the virus.
I truly believe they are under reporting cases here in NY. I know more people now sick with COVID than I ever did in the last year. Most were vaccinated and still sick. Yes, not hospitalized but pretty sick. I have no idea how my area (Westchester County NY) is not a high rate area... Every day I am learning of another 5 or so people sick. They must be under reporting.. yet in FL they over report. Its all to fit whatever narrative they are going for.
....... The gnashing of teeth over Florida’s case count is disingenuous. Per capita, we aren’t even in the top 5 for new cases. We have a 14% increase currently. Meanwhile, Louisiana is seeing a 20+% increase in cases and a few other states are also in the 20% range. Despite the drive to portray DeSantis as the current Antichrist, we actually aren’t doing as bad as the media likes to portray.
The media knows that Gov. DeSantis is a top contender for the Presidency and is doing what they can to knock him from that position, regardless of truth or not.

There are Republicans doing the same thing. It goes with the territory.
During the first year of the pandemic, the Florida Dept. of Health released daily COVID-19 case numbers. It switched to weekly numbers recently though, relying on the CDC to track the daily numbers instead.
Just posting facts. You can call it deflection if you must.
I think I did but thanks for the permission.
