TALLAHASSEE - At least five residents from The Villages have contracted the coronavirus through community spread or close contact with someone else who had the virus, according to the Florida Department of Health in Sumter County.
The Villages is a rapidly growing retirement community of more than 50,000 residents that spans three north central Florida counties. Most of the community is in Sumter County, where 29 people have tested positive for the virus as of Friday.
At least 16 of the 29 residents who tested positive had contracted the virus while traveling, and another eight residents remained under investigation.
Five residents either became infected through the community, or after having close contact with someone who also tested positive, Megan McCarthy, a DOH Sumter County spokesperson, said.

Did I mention that a few of the spiders will be Sydney Funnel Webs?
As I said, willingly giving up rights for “safety”.
It’s that simple. It really is.
And where did I say I was just “hoping it goes away”? I did not.
The sheeple are amusing to me.
“President Trump has a very different job and focus. He has to care about everything.”
I had an old boss that when working on various types of projects likened it to juggling balls. Trump has a dozen balls in the air, and all of them are critical. My prayers for him and all the leaders around him.
I was just thinking - if it was a democrat in office and doing the same things - would I be as mindful of what they are trying to juggle?
I would like to think so. I seem to recall cutting Obama some slack on response to a hurricane. Many natural disasters are just overwhelming.
The trouble with this virus it is like a hurricanes hitting all over the country all at the same time.
You don't "got" anything. The old, those with preexisting conditions and the scared should be isolated and also practice self isolation and leave the LIVING alone to carry on with our lives.
Don’t be so sure...my Mom once started to swat a spider on the wall and when her towel’s shadow hit the spider all the unseen babies on its back, at least 40 to 50 suddenly became visible when they all moved at once and started to scatter ... I thought Mom was going to wet her britches.
“You don’t “got” anything. The old, those with preexisting conditions and the scared should be isolated and also practice self isolation and leave the LIVING alone to carry on with our lives.”
So they are already dead? Is that why they are worthless? I see.
In case there is the slightest chance of penetrating your solipsist bubble, those are real people with real lives and real loved-ones. Not all the people that get this and DIE from it are worthless old geezers or have preexisting conditions. Some young, healthy, not-worthless people do, too.
For CCP-19, 50 is the new 65. Does that mean you now fall into the worthless old geezer demographic? How close are you? Maybe you better reevaluate.
And I am pretty sure nobody is stopping you from living your life. You just can’t force anybody to live it with you. They have their own lives to worry about.
What an asinine statement. The government is shutting down whole swaths of the economy and causing financial chaos FOR NOTHING..
