DeSantis for the win

[Nine_Ender]

Florida hitting 14% positive rate....I do hope this comes down because the packed beaches will not make this better in 2 weeks. If the government does want to give you guidelines at least police yourself and be socially aware and distant on the beaches.....NOPE.

The current America psychology concerning social policies is pretty dangerous to a lot of people's health at this point. Perhaps it's a hard lesson that can't be prevented. Down the road I predict a treatment or cure will be found, and that the harm to the economy will almost entirely disappear within a year ( with some bumps along the way ). "Herd immunity" imo will never be a thing. If I'm right, any extra deaths and long term health issues that people get now are an outright tragedy of massive proportions.

Certainly the stock market is agreeing with me on it's outlook for the economy a year from now.

"DeSantis for the win"

Congrats to Florida on their new record.

Florida shatters single-day record, records over 11,000 new coronavirus cases
https://thehill.com/homenews/state-...day-record-records-over-11000-new-coronavirus

Florida on Saturday reported 11,458 new coronavirus cases, shattering the single-day record established on Thursday.

The Florida Department of Health has now reported 190,052 confirmed COVID-19 cases and 3,702 deaths, including 18 new fatalities reported on Independence Day, according to the Orlando Sentinel. There have been an additional 101 deaths of non-Florida residents.

The single-day record was last broken on Thursday, when more than 10,000 new cases were reported.

.......

The governor also has sought to downplay the significance of the rising infections. This week, he refused to take responsibility for Florida’s increase in cases when asked by a reporter.

4 Hospitals in Fla. County Run Out of ICU Beds as State Sets Another Record in New Daily COVID Cases
https://www.newsweek.com/4-hospital...-another-record-new-daily-covid-cases-1515485

All intensive care unit (ICU) beds are currently occupied at four hospitals in Pinellas County, Florida, as the state continues to see a record spike in new cases and hospitalizations related to the novel coronavirus.

Mease Dunedin Hospital, AdventHealth North Pinellas, Morton Plant Hospital and St. Petersburg General Hospital had reached their maximum ICU bed capacities by Sunday, according to data published by the Florida Agency for Healthcare Administration (AHCA). The data showed five additional Pinellas County hospitals approached their respective ICU capacities on Sunday, with each reporting fewer than 15 percent of beds available. Overall, about 86 percent of ICU beds in Pinellas County were occupied.

In total, there are 11 hospitals across Pinellas County—located west of Tampa along Florida's Gulf Coast—with resources to treat ICU patients.

The AHCA's latest update was released as Florida health officials confirm a statewide surge in new COVID-19 cases, as well as subsequent hospitalizations. On Saturday, the Florida Department of Health (DOH) reported a new record increase in diagnoses confirmed daily, with almost 11,500 cases. Unlike other states, the Florida DOH does not release ongoing data regarding hospital and ICU admissions related to the novel virus. Governor Ron DeSantis called for changes to the state's reporting of virus-related hospitalization numbers at the end of June.

Your explanation is completely off-base IMO but simply leads to the next question.

You can say my assertion is off base. What you can't say is that I didn't explain it.

Based on your assertions one would assume that after two weeks have passed that the death total for any particular day in the DeSantis portal would match any external source. It does not. The DeSantis portal death total is nearly always lower. Tell us why?

I'll just repeat what I said previously until it sinks in. It will never match by the DAY because the Florida portal shows the day in which the death actually occurred. The Worldometers shows when it was reported. Over time, in aggregate, it will match. It will never match day to day.

As I've said. Over and over.

Correct. Wow on a roll, got one right.

But I am proudly a Never Chumpie.

Feel free to move your lips as you read this (no more double/triple posts to explain basic chit to you) Florida (not USA, USA, USA) Covid 19 Deaths (from one of your data sources btw) rolling 7 day moving averages since the first death:
View attachment 232414
Looks like a new alltime high coming up. "BrownieDeSantis you're doing a heck of a job". "Killing it".

The 7 day average is back to April's numbers. Yes. 45 people a day, on average.

127 people die in Florida every day of Heart Disease. And have for a long, long time now.
71 people die in Florida every day of Cancer. And have for a long, long time now.
35 from run-of-the-mill accidents.

And so on and so on. Life goes on. Deaths are horrible. But this is the way the universe works.

Recent day's data on deaths in Florida are trending up not even flat anymore. 64 and 68 dead each day. Short sample but given the nature of the virus, a change in trend is not promising especially in combination with monster infection rates.

It is a concerning trend. But there were also the last two days of lower numbers.

Total Case Count also rising, which is a concerning number. But the % of deaths isn't.

Here are the numbers from the Florida Portal. I post them because gwb starts foaming at the mouth and biting his pillows when I do. Please note that the deaths will differ from the above charts because they are counted on the day they happen, not the day they are reported (as the above chart does). But positive cases are counted in a similar manner.

The numbers in California mirror Florida's and are showing a spike in overall cases and the last week of a rise in deaths (with some days over 100). And California doesn't have DeSantis as a governor.

So unless he's causing California AND Florida's deaths to be rising, its probably some other factor - like opening up. My bet is you'll see many other states following suit rather quickly, and it isn't going to have anything to do with their governors, but simply people trying to get back to life.

North Carolina - case counts way up. Tennessee, way up. And so on.

So someone explain to us how DeSantis is winning.

Florida is the only state in the U.S. where the governor deliberately refused to report COVID hospitalizations for months.

This only changed a couple days ago after endless pressure from the press, residents, doctors, and national health organizations.

Just another example of DeSantis “winning”.

A troll says what? Roy Cooper "Winning".
