I agree with this statement. I am fully vaxxed and give not two shits about masks. I do occasionally spray the Everclear on my hands when getting back into the car if I feel gross, but that is prolly a good habit to have anyways. Will keep me from getting the flu. In the end, I have fucking ZERO worries about getting COVID again, because I got the vaccine. The one people need to worry about this year is RSV. It is just as nasty, and just as insidious. Just not as fatal. That is the one that will fuck up this country this winter. Mark my words. JnJ is working on a vaccine for it, it is in trial now I believe. We need that vaccine! RSV is EVIL.
What the fuck !!! Please tell us when this deadly contagion begins to impact your health or mental well being including being descriptive about any illnesses/injuries including mental instability. Which vaccine did you take and are you partially vaccinated or fully vaccinated ? You obviously must work for a private business with +100 employees, federal employee, healthcare worker, school teacher, or military. If you're not any of the above, why did you get vaccinated especially when you strongly believe its a deadly contagion ? Before you die from the deadly contagion (Covid vaccine) as you called it...please understand that you've made a great sacrifice and that we greatly appreciate your devotion to the welfare, health and safety of mankind. By the way, I read somewhere that 20% of the population will never be vaccinated or can not be vaccinated due to medical reasons or religious reasons. P.S. Life is not fair. Covid is no different and we just need to learn to live with it. wrbtrader
We can all say what was bad in the past..I said at this time Florida is becoming a safer place then many others BTY you went through the trouble to research and post charts, why would you not fact check your NY population statement.... I find it disappointing that you would wing facts
Why don't we take a look at Florida over recent months. No state in the U.S. had higher raw Covid death numbers or per capita death numbers than Florida. These horrific results are directly due to the DeSantis administration. Florida had nation’s worst COVID-19 death rate during summer surge https://floridapolitics.com/archive...orst-covid-19-death-rate-during-summer-surge/ The delta variant-driven summer surge of 2021 was deadlier in Florida than in any other state. The latest federal COVID-19 reports covering the period since June 20 — which roughly coincided with the time the summer surge began — shows that more people have since been reported to have died of the disease in Florida than in any other state. Florida’s per-capita rate of reported COVID-19 deaths also has been higher than any other state in the period, which covers though Oct. 6. Florida’s COVID-19 summer surge appears to be largely over, as the number of new confirmed cases has been plummeting for more than a month, and the number of deaths have been falling for a couple of weeks. The same is mostly true nationally, though some states are seeing increases in their COVID-19 numbers. Most epidemiologists expect that cold states will see their surges peak during colder weather. For now, as case and death numbers fall back toward where they were in June, before the summer surge began, the mortality toll of the disease’s summer outbreak in Florida is coming into clear focus. More people were reported to have died in Florida since June 20 than in any other state — more than Texas, California, or Arizona. Even when Florida’s large population is factored in, Florida’s per-capita death rate was worse than all other states’, including smaller southern states that suffered harsh summer surges, such as Louisiana and Arkansas. Florida Politics examined the Community Profile Reports from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention that were released on June 21, which reported cumulative death data through June 20; and Thursday, which covered data through Wednesday. Since June 20, 18,040 Floridians were reported to have died of COVID-19, according to the data. In the same period, the second highest death toll was found in Texas, 14,032. California had the nation’s third highest COVID-19 death toll during that period, with 6,338 reported deaths; followed by Georgia, 5,307; and North Carolina, 3,472. Since June 20, 84 out of every 100,000 Floridians were reported to have died of COVID-19, according to the CDC data. That rate, adjusting for Florida’s large population, is the worst in the nation. The second highest per-capita rate was in Mississippi, where 81 deaths were reported per 100,000 people since June 20. The next highest per-capita death rates were Louisiana, 73; Alabama, 67; and Arkansas, 63. Florida Politics also examined reported COVID-19 deaths by county. Miami-Dade County suffered more reported deaths than any other county in the nation this summer, with 2,032 recorded since June 20. Harris County, Texas, home to Houston, had the second-most reported COVID-19 deaths during the period, with 1,908, followed by Los Angeles County, California, with 1,741. Fourth worst nationally was Broward County, with 1,443 reported COVID-19 deaths during the period. The CDC data covers more than 3,200 American counties and parishes. Also among the 20 worst counties in the nation for summer COVID-19 deaths were Duval County, with 1,151 deaths reported; Palm Beach County, 1,050; Hillsborough County, 929; Polk County, 884; Pinellas County, 845; Brevard County, 738; Orange County, 692; Lee County, 684; and Marion County, 663. On a per-capita basis, nearly all the worst counties in America were rural, low-population counties where a few tragic deaths disproportionately drove up mortality rates. Among America’s 604 counties and parishes with at least 100,000 residents, the six counties with the worst death rates all were in Florida. Marion County, with a population of 365,579, saw 663 COVID-19 deaths reported since June 20, for a rate of 181 deaths per 100,000 residents during that period. That was the worst in the nation for any county with at least 100,000 residents. Citrus County reported COVID-19 deaths at the nation’s second highest rate for counties of at least 100,000, with a rate of 180 deaths per 100,000 residents. Hernando County was next at 173; followed by Bay County, 148; Clay County, 140; and Highlands County, 139. Indian River County, Lake County, Brevard, Polk, Duval, Sumter County, and Pasco counties also had death rates among the 20 worst in the nation among counties with at least 100,000 people.
Make a weekly chart showing the state with the most Covid each month from the start, Florida would not be at the top
It is a shame in a time period when a vaccine is freely available and proper public health measures for stopping the spread of Covid are well-known --- that a state is greatly exceeding their previous death, hospitalization, and case peaks. This is very different time than the onset of the pandemic -- and in the example of Florida all of this misery was completely avoidable.
Also a terrible marketing program to distribute the vaccine Its tough when the 2 leaders of the vaccine program say during the election they don't trust the vaccine Very little outreach to get into the more remote communities and inner city communities. You can bet during an election they have no problem getting someone to their front doors to collect a ballot
Reaching so far he has achieved a full self-reacharound. You will find when the leadership are absolutely bloody determined to no only deny reality but spin a marrive big lie and enthrall their base with cult rubbish people needlessly die. Florida, an already easy target for stupid causes of death.
