So, do you guys expect the rate of new infections in Florida to go up, down, or remain the same?

I think this is the state data.

Didn’t DumbSantis try to censor FL’s coronavirus data or something?

Still looks like before so far. We may get a few extra weeks before the infections really pick up.
You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really?

They are up
WI and SD are reporting their highest infected daily totals since the pandemic has began.
This was preventable
SD had the longest warning on the planet
Yet
They still held Sturgis knowing what was coming and its coming now due to the rally.
SD could have been the safest state in the country if they instituted masks and social distancing before the virus hit the state.

East Asia
You dont go outside your house without a mask
If you do, people get pretty incensed.
You are viewed as pro virus and hated. Therefore everybody wears a mask

Here in the USA, some conservatives are loud and proud to go maskless

Why is the US doomed TP? Lets pick a number I threw out this spring of 1% deaths, that would be 3.3 million deaths. If it was to reach that high a number it would probably take several years to get that high. In 2018 the US had 2.8 million deaths. I am not trying to make light of 3.3 deaths but the US would survive that many deaths just fine and there is a good chance deaths from other causes would go down during that time. Some rather morbid positive things that would occur is that the pressure would be taken off of seniors care facilities. There would be lots of spare housing for a while. Employment opportunities might go up but jobs might mirror the population decline. More space in the University and Colleges.

Life will continue TP but we would all need to adjust and get over the shock of deaths doubling for one year.
