Forty percent of all new cases this week have been recorded in Florida, Texas and Missouri, White House pandemic response coordinator Jeff Zients revealed at a press briefingThursday.

Florida alone accounts for 20 percent of all new cases nationally, Zients pointed out, a trend that has stretched into its second week.

Zients added that “virtually all” hospitalizations and deaths — a full 97 percent — are among unvaccinated people. “The threat is now predominantly only to the unvaccinated,” he said. A few vaccinated people do experience so-called breakthrough infections, but they tend to experience only mild COVID-19 illness, or no illness at all.

268 deaths in the entire country in the last 24 hrs. Why the fear?

Dear Texas, please separate from the union. This is not going to *EVER* get better. The ballot box is broken. The judicial system is broken. Just do it, if you can.

“Florida's governor, Ron DeSantis, is a Donald Trump loyalist who is widely expected to seek the presidency in 2024. His handling of the pandemic is coming under new scrutiny with the recent rise in cases.”

Isn't this really what the story is about?

Florida has an aging population with special health vulnerabilities. I can't help but wonder why that fact was not in the headline.

That’s correct, the leftist say the vaccinated are getting sick from the unvaccinated.

We’ve entered loony tune territory.

I live in Palm Beach County. Numbers were recently posted by zip code for the percentage of vax in each zip code. “Palm Beach,” proper, approached 100%, which is probably not far from reality. The $$$$ zip codes had 80% or more vax. Cities like Riviera Beach and areas by Lake Okeechobee(extreme poor) had very, very low numbers. It’s a rich vs. poor thing in this county. I am also hearing from restaurant workers(quietly) that people are getting sick...

Letting in hundreds of thousands infected illegals is the same strategy as pushing infected sick people into nursing homes. It’s the dem’s covid playbook.

40% of cases...

And what are the actual numbers? The average reader will probably think the actual numbers are way higher than they are.

I read earlier that they don’t count cases for the vaccinated unless they are hospitalized. So a state with lower vaccinations will have more cases. It makes good Republican bashing headlines.

Big surprise no one is getting or dying from the flu. Look at the last three flu seasons compared to now. LOL

“Poll: Americans oppose new Texas-style GOP voting restrictions”

Proof positive that the media has duped the general public on what that bill actually says. I highly doubt anyone polled has read the thing.

Convenient how they left out liberal California, which has the 2nd most new cases after FL, in the article.

Who cares? Different numbers in different states. Non stop. We’re all gonna die.

Do you think maybe the “other reports” you’ve been seeing are the ones with a political agenda

Because what this says looks more like what we are experiencing in reality, and makes the most sense

Only consolation is while the numbers go up, the deaths may not because most of the vulnerable were vaccinated
