We’re Actually Doing VERY WELL in Meeting the COVID-19 Challenge

Say what you will about the first months of the disease… the improvement and success of dealing with COVID-19 is undeniable — even in Florida! ESPECIALLY in Florida.

Team Apocalypse keeps moving the #COVID19 goalposts. Cases one day, deaths another, now their focus is on hospitalizations. Fine. Let’s use our Florida Case Line data to examine that.

This is a meaty chart but if you take 30 seconds to follow the 1,2,3 I think you’ll get it.

If you look at JUST May and June you can see how much testing was done in June to find more cases. The story here though is HOW MUCH BETTER we are at treatments and HOW MANY FEWER cases need hospitalization.

MORE testing + YOUNGER cases + BETTER treatments = success!

Unfortunately, dates are lacking for hospitalization and death of the case but the case “anchored” to its illness month.
