Florida today reporting # cases at 2760 today, lowest since June. Looks like it is going to be sooner than a few months to get below 2100, more a like a few weeks. Plus the early indicators Covid ER visits is dropping just as quickly, so cases and hospitalizatiosn are going to continue to drop even further.
yes , and with the other leading indicators dropping fast as well that average will be meet sooner than later, possibly in less than two weeks but more likely three, looking a trends
I believe most of the state travel restrictions are updated weekly, not sure if it’s always a Sunday to Saturday week but assuming that’s the case FL won’t likely come off the list next Monday (unless something dramatic happens in the next few days) so the earliest it could happen would be Mon 8/31 assuming next week has a weekly average below 2,100 and the percent positive stays under 10%. So far so good, but the big area to watch is schools going back, specifically colleges. I don’t know what all of the colleges in FL are all doing but some schools are requiring a negative test to return to campus. That could potentially temporarily boost the positives if a lot of college students get tested to return to school. It should ely o further reduce percent positive. Widespread infection from college students is also possible if people don’t follow precautions but that may take several weeks to really start up if at all.
Agree it will probably be hopefully around Mid September.
Sure, but number of tests don't seem to matter when positive test are high
. Positivity is still in the 8.3% range, in the range it was back in June
3 month curve, started mid-June and ends mid-Sept. Same as almost all the major outbreaks around the world: Wuhan, Italy, NYC, etc..
When I attended The Hill School in Pennsylvania in the 1970's during the energy crisis we were the only school in the entire state that was open. All the colleges and Universities were also closed so we were the only educational facility allowed to be open. That was because we were a boarding school and had most classrooms in the same buildings as the dormitories.
Just ignore that one guy. For the most part the Covid talk here has been focused directly on the number of cases in FL and how that is impacting current and future park hours.
