    A little late, but if it gets people to get the shot, I’ll take it.

    Brevard county #18, not too bad. Bottom 5 counties dominated by the Panhandle.

    Brevard is an embarrassment. That we have our state legislators threatening pre-emption over local officials on community health decisions is simply mind boggling.

    I believe our fourth highest day of the entire pandemic was yesterday. Last summer we only hit 15k once. The good news is that we are much better at treatment so hopefully the deaths won't track with this peak the way they did with the last two peaks.

    Today there are 9,700 patients in Florida hospitals with covid, far exceeding this state's 2nd wave peak, and quickly heading to top its 1st wave (~12,000)

    Advent health is at code black, whatever that means.
    And then there is this


    I just don’t get it. The opera society is so pussified that having to wear a mask during a pandemic is triggering. SMDH

    There actually hasn't been any improvement in treatment since late last year. With that said, some of the positives are the vaccinated now, so at least they shouldn't get too sick.
