Are you aware that Florida has an older than average population?
I think that is true, though I don’t know if so year round. Lots of vacationers in summer. We’re not talking about voter registration or domicile here. We’re just talking about what state a dying Covid patient was in when he punched out.
They had a big peak about 3-4 mos ago. It dragged their deaths/million sharply up. I’m just complaining other red state places had late summer peaks and are not reporting single digit daily deaths. Something is amiss there.
It may get revealed when their next peak begins.
Actually not correct
This is a list of U.S. states, the District of Columbia and territories by median age in 2019. Median age is the age that divides a population into two numerically equal groups - that is, half the people are younger than this age and half are older. It is a single index that summarizes the age distribution of a population.
