COVID-19 CONVERSATION: Miami-Dade County. A Hotspot? Business Over Deaths?

May 13, 2020 Leave a comment

Very simply, Miami-Dade county is 13 percent of the Florida population of 22,000,000. it represents 34% of the Covid-19 infections and 28% of the deaths as of today. Infections and deaths are under counted for sure.

If not a hotspot in the some sense, Mayor Gimenez and the Commission should not be running so fast to open in 5 days. Irresponsible people will rush to restaurants, stores and hair salons. Poor social distancing and mask use is prevalent.

More and accelerating deaths will be seen in the country for sure.

Easing restrictions on public life too soon could result in a surge in new cases that could quickly spiral out of control, public health officials said on Tuesday, but a New York Times analysis of cellphone data found that tens of millions of Americans were already leaving their homes in growing numbers.

COVID-19 CONVERSATION: Messrs DeSantis (FL), Giménez (Miami Dade), Valdés-Fauli (Coral Gables) DON’T OPEN NOW!

May 12, 2020 Leave a comment

The State of Florida, the Miami-Dade County and the City of Coral Gables do not meet the rigorous, well-defined and scientifically-derived criteria prepared by the Coronavirus Task Force and the White House to guide states and regions in opening from the stay-at-home and other mitigation measures. Many states are on the march to open up and rush ahead in increasing the coronavirus dead. In two or three weeks the number of infections, hospitalizations and deaths increase.

Even worse many people in the region have not adopted seriously face coverings and there is a growing informality in following social distancing.

Follow Trump into infamy.
