Some spring breakers in Florida didn’t get the social distancing memo. Hundreds of people packed Clearwater Beach Thursday as President Trump urged Americans to avoid gatherings of 10 people during the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.

Local reporter Sarah Hollenbeck, of WFTS-TV, captured the sunny scene with tight clusters of college-aged beach-goers scattered across the sand.

“BUSY BEACH! This is what @MyClearwater Beach looks like right now as spring break crowds flock to the sand,” Hollenbeck tweeted.

Good.

The hysteria hasn’t spread to every sector apparently.

The young ones were already insane and doped up on hormones though. Probably helps.

Glad to see they’re getting lots of Vitamin D.

College kids. The safest demo. They could get it and probably not even know they have it. But they could spread it. Reminds me of Jaws when they refused to close the beach.

Without a care. To stupid to think. Bound for horror. Okay by me.

Florida may be our “Italy”.

In hindsight, will Miami 20/20 be worse than what was predicted in Miami 2017?

I saw the lights go out on Broadway.

And why not? People have been saying that heat and humidity kill the virus!

Not much evidence to support that hope.

It's always warm in Singapore, The Philippines, Brazil and Malaysia. It's Summer/early autumn in Australia, Argentina and South Africa. There are active cases in all those places

Bring Out Your Dead

Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.

The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.

The false positive rate was 100%.

At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.

*sigh* Such is life, and death...

If a quarantine saves just one child's or one old fart’s life, it's worth it.

FUN. FUN. FUN.

Selfish generation.

(I've seen) the lights go out on Broadway.

I saw the Empire State laid low...

Italy’s young residents just posted today we wish
we took the warnings more serious.
So Puerto Rico is clearing the beaches today but the greedy sobs in Clearwater reenact the band on the Titanic .
Where is the Mayor or FL Governor?..
That FL county has infected .
