I've been watching Florida because of the huge Baptist service...

... in Miami well after we were warned against large crowds (posted on DU somewhere), and because of the crowds gathering on the beaches. It hasn't shown up yet as a hot spot, but last night on Rachel, she showed a map generated by a thermometer company of unusual temperatures all over the country, and Florida, unlike anywhere else, was almost solid red. I thought, at the time I read the post about the Baptist service that the Miami hospital staffs must be shuddering. AND enraged!!

EDIT: I just looked at coronavirus.1point3acres.com and Florida has leaped to 5th in the nation, adding 88 cases today.

why things are so bad in Italy and found out that it has the second oldest population in the world.

I looked at my wife and said "I don't feel too good about Florida's chances."
