It never seems to get here? Holy crap, 125,000 Americans are dead, and you don't think it already got here months ago? You're not just a paid troll, you're a moron.
Actually over 132,000 now.
Sure there are. The fact that their median age is 82 and that 94% of them had at least two other deadly conditions not a factor? All those folks would be alive and well without Covid.
Not alive and well. Diabetes, COPD or any other co-morbidity is going to impact quality and life span especially at age 80 plus. These seniors are not in the category of Ed Whitlock and he succumbed to cancer at late age of 83. There are plenty of other seniors who’ve recovered just as with the flue, cold or other upper respiratory illness. The problem is multiple chronic state, nearly 90% of which are caused by lifestyle choices
Read the front pages of the NY Times and the Boston Globe today.
Headlines screamed that the virus was raging somewhere -- Cali I think -- and that some state was "inundated" with it.
The Boston Herald assures us that there will inevitably be a second wave in Massachusetts -- no explanation as to why.
On an aside, the NYTimes had a front page articles on the resurgence of Neo-Nazism in Germany.
Folks, this is not journalism. This is fear mongering BS

Why would you come on here and state a lie, a lie that can be easily proven to be a lie? According to Statista, Florida has a median age of 42.2. Florida is not even the oldest state in U.S. by median age. State you are a Libertarian or an Anarchist. State the truth that you do not want a governor telling you to wear a seat belt or telling you that you must purchase auto insurance to legally drive. State that you want to go to church or go to gentlemen clubs with no restrictions. Do not lie and say the virus is not real and do not lie and state the median age in FL 82. Europe beat covid-19 by shutting everything down for 2 1/2 months. U.S. citizens are still dying because of people like you. If all 50 states would have shut down when Europe shut down, 1st week of March, U.S. would have beaten covid-19.

You are still lying. Who told you that, Breitbart News or Fox News? Just say you do not want to wear a mask, you would seem a bit more reasonable.

What's the lie? Can you say?
Come on.
You accused me of lying.
Surely you must know what the lie is?
No?
How do you keep up this disinformation campaign so tirelessly?
Money? I'm guessing?
Now, while I can't rule out some of the above posters bring braindead, I can't rule out that you are merely posting to yourself in order have someone to seem smarter than.
Honestly, mods, PLEASE ban this guy.

Better ban this guy who is calling out our BS -- is that your thought?
Sad,.

Everything matters. Everything is telling.
Provocative post!
I thought it was JUST the flu?
"At least 56 intensive care units in Florida hospitals reached capacity on Tuesday, state officials said. Another 35 hospitals show ICU bed availability of 10% or less, according to the Agency for Health Care Administration in that state."
15,000+ yesterday, and already over 12k today.. Not looking too good for the Sunshine State.
Folks let me know what you all think about these stats and if you believe we're being lied to: on Saturday here's what these countries reported as new cases in one day: UK 516; Sweden 57; Germany 298; Italy 208; Japan 206; Denmark 47; Norway 11; the USA 57,209!! There's something very wrong going on in our country, 57,000 new cases in one day compared to the rest of the world. Well i for one do not believe our Gov't anymore!
Here's daily new cases and fatalities over time, all smoothed to 7-day running average:
Both cases and fatalities are shooting upward.

Your error--not going to call it a "lie" because you may have believed what you posted--was in saying the the median age of Floridians dead from COVID-19 is 82. It's not; it's 75 and has been dropping steadily for a month and more.
You also didn't post any evidence for your assertion. Here's some for mine.

So how much has the recent protests contributed to the spread of covid?
Not clear, and personally I would love to know.
Some of the protestors were *not* masked for the whole time, and many of them were not maintaining social distance throughout, so you'd expect some vulnerability; but almost all of their activity was outdoors, where infections seem to be very rare indeed.
I'm going to cut Disney World some slack on its reopening. It sounds like they have taken some thoughtful steps, established serious policies, and (most important) are *enforcing* those policies.
I'm not going to prejudge this effort. I hope everything goes well for everybody.
