Hospitalizations in some areas increased at the fastest rate since the start of the pandemic, according to data analyzed by the Wall Street Journal.
Florida was still racking up one of every five cases in the country just as it did the previous week when the director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention warned of the rising pandemic of the unvaccinated.
The astonishing uptick in Florida cases from some 46,000 to 73,000 this past week to Thursday was linked to the states lackluster vaccination rate, dropped health protocols requiring masks and social distancing, and more people moving indoors to escape the summer heat, according to epidemiologists.

(4,291 posts)The idea of putting a mask on a 3-year-old is totally unacceptable.
But an average of 6,492 cases each day is somehow acceptable.
Your "seasonal thing" is almost over, Ronnie. You have totally "monkeyed this up!"*
