CNN

Florida has "all the markings of the next large epicenter of coronavirus transmission," and risks being the "worst it has ever been," according to Wednesday's projections from a model by scientists at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and the University of Pennsylvania.

"The potential for the virus to take off there is very, very nerve-racking and could have catastrophic consequences" because of the state's aging population and the prevalence of nursing homes and retirement communities, Dr. Jeanne Marrazzo, director of the division of infectious diseases at the University of Alabama at Birmingham, told CNN on Thursday.


It's important to note that large gatherings, such as political rallies, sporting events, or concerts....should be feared as a public heath risk.

Number of cases without the context of number of tests, type of tests being reported, and whether there are backlogged tests tells us absolutely nothing.



Edit to add:
Let's not forget that some places are testing employees as they return to work and testing folks going in for elective surgeries.

Test more, find more.

I dont think anyone in these states has any interest in spending time in your shithole. We can actually do stuff here. Not sit at home looking out the window at the crumbling streets.

It’s not. It’s 3 counties.

They are terrified of rising star Ron DeSantis.

I tested negative, but that doesn't mean I can't contract it today or tomorrow. Testing is important especially for context, but it doesn't make you immune.
