"Cases" is an utterly meaningless statistic. It just means a positive test result. It doesn't mean someone is actually sick. The term "case" shouldn't even be used.

The post doesn't give the most relevant statistic, which is hospitalizations.

Also relevant is that Florida contains a higher percentage of at risk people because so many retirees live there.

Another relevant statistic would be how many tests were done in the given period. Then that could be compared to states with lower “case” numbers against their number of tests and number of positive test results.

Even with that drawing conclusions would be sketchy without numerous other factors accounted for.

This hoax has no end of permutations all ripe for exploitation and our political betters are exploiting as many as they can.

With deaths dropping, they need to keep the fear porn going.

Plus, it's a DeSantis hit piece.
