Let's check the full stats. 3528 positives in that little spreadsheet, recorded from the start of the pandemic thru 7/11. Because what these numbers are, are cumulative, not daily.


Total positives for the state of FL, same time frame 337,795. So those positives represent 1.04% of the state's positive cases. There are also 2,819,784 negatives for the state recorded in that same time frame. So the potential negatives not recorded would be around 30,000 assuming that those labs have an overall positivity rate equal to the state as a whole. But let's be generous and say they are doing better than average, and there are 100,000 overall negatives not recorded. So new positivity for the state, over the last 4 months from 11% down to 10.3%.

Free everyone! Florida is safe!

Stop with your logic and math...an error was found and it negates all current and future bad news that comes out. Anytime the numbers look bad we can just point to this “error” and say there’s proof the numbers are wrong. Get with the program.

Yup. We need verification and explanation of the glitch.

But this doesn’t change case numbers, hospitalizations, ICU use, negative outcomes...

This story is indicative. It is all over certain corners of the internet. In a vast majority of places, it is being used to prove that the pandemic in Florida is a hoax. Few are actually considering its actual meaning or implications, the goal is to find one bit of confused or confusing info, hurl it out from as many sources as possible, and declare that it means nothing is wrong.

By the way, the local Fox report is a neat example of why you need to examine every bit of evidence critically, especially when it confirms prior assumptions. It’s hyperbolic, as so much coverage on both sides is - it declares the number of labs reporting only positives is “countless” - as the above chart indicates, the number is 32, which I hope the reporter can count to. It also does nothing to try and understand what the glitch might mean for the numbers.

Actually, there is one frightening statistic in that spreadsheet that was posted.

PANCARE of FL. In that 7/12 data it shows 323 positives. In today's data, one day later... 384. Back up to 7/09 - 313. 7/05 - 283. So from 7/05 to 7/13, an increase of 101 positives. Remember, in 16 days Orlando Health only went up by 15 positives.

I Googled where PanCare of FL is... The Panhandle, between Pensacola & Tallahassee. So you all have fun up there.

EDIT: It gets worse. On 6/28, the oldest report I can load: Pancare - 6. Almost all of today's 384 positives have come in the last 2 weeks.

If you'd told me this time last year when I was in Disneyland that at that same time next year Disneyland would be on month four and counting of being totally closed, and that Disney World, after being totally closed for almost as long, would have only just reopened, in the middle of a pandemic where Florida is a current major hotspot...I mean, any way you slice it this year has really been something so far. (And it's still only mid-July! 😭) (Also I guess if I'd known then what I know now, I probably would have gone on a few more rides a few more times before we left Anaheim, hahaha. 😉)

I miss the parks. I have a feeling my family and I will be missing them for a while yet, and that's OK, but I still miss them. 😕 (Edit: granted obviously it hasn't been that long, haha! Maybe it's knowing I can't/won't go right now that's amplifying those feelings...)
