Florida mayor: COVID-19 numbers 'doubling every 10 or 11 days'
The Hill ^ | 08/03/2021 | OLAFIMIHAN OSHIN

The mayor of Broward County, Fla., Steve Geller (D), said Monday that COVID-19 cases in his county are “doubling every 10 or 11 days,” CBS Miami reported.

Geller reiterated the notion that the spike in virus cases is largely attributed to the unvaccinated.

“The numbers are doubling every 10 or 11 days,” Geller said. “This is horrifying.”

Geller also said that most intensive care hospital units are well over their capacity, saying that most medical facilities have to convert some areas that are not designed to be ICUs, CBS Miami reported.

Surely he meant ‘quintoupling’ right? Doubling doesn’t seem serious enough. Oh, and make it every 3-4 days.

They’re trying to take out DeSantis who’s becoming too popular with freedom-loving Americans. It’s as simple as that. Most of the Covid ‘cases’ are probably summer colds and some flu.

“The numbers are doubling every 10 or 11 days,”

That means that the numbers will increase by a factor of about 68 billion in less than a year. Wow.

Or maybe he only meant “have been doubling, recently”, and frightening extrapolations aren’t warranted.

Once Broward County was Republican and a decent place to live. Over the decades, the Democrats have done their good job of ruining it as usual. What did you expect re COVID?

Can you imagine how quickly they will reach “herd immunity”? This would seem to be a good thing, IMO.

Over the past week, my annual freelance income has more than tripled.

That's right: Last year, my freelance income amounted to $2600. That's 50 bucks a week. But last week, I earned $100. So, for that one week, my (projected) annual income doubled.

Of course, when I brag to others, I simply say that I've doubled my income.

Is that bad?

Regards,

No need to worry.

The hospitals there have had more than a year to prepare for any “surge.”

Everything should be fine.

“ Geller reiterated the notion that the spike in virus cases is largely attributed to the unvaccinated.”

I thought the vax only lessened symptoms. That is one of the reasons it isn’t a real vax.
