[QUOTE="DisneyCane, post: 9273447, member: 2341"] Here is why I don't respect opinions from "experts" and especially opinions that are spun by reporters. Here is a combination quote and paraphrase from the article (paraphrased by the author not me). This shows that the expert didn't do any real research. If they looked on the Florida department of health site, there is a report of the total number of active positive people that reside in long term care facilities updated daily. If the "expert" bothered to take 30 seconds to pull up the report they would see that during this catastrophic "spike" in cases, the number of positive nursing home residents has dropped and was at the lowest level yesterday in 30 days (the length of the chart). It would have taken a little longer to find the slide from the press conference the other day that showed the median age of cases dropping, indicating that the median age of people testing positive (which is not the same as the number of people infected) is dropping. If there was a way (I haven't found it) to access the daily pdf report from earlier days, you'd be able to see the shift in the age groups getting documented over time. Also, the evidence is building that something changed in who is getting tested vs. more people getting infected. The daily cases were relatively flat for a while and then jumped a few days ago to a new level but have been relatively flat in that range again. If there was an acceleration in the spread, the daily cases would be increasing daily by a significant and noticeable amount. They wouldn't stay +/- 10% from day to day. I can't be 100% confident in this assertion until a few more days of similar data (on similar testing numbers). [/QUOTE]
