Coronavirus in the United States - news and thoughts

Ugh just found out my 9 yr old has COVID. He feels like garbage

 

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

Counties with the highest COVID-19 vaccination rate in Florida

 

I am not surprised at all that Clay County is #44. The anti-vax movement is strong here.

 

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

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.
