Despite this massive hike in Covid-19 cases, I read in another article where Governor DeSantis has no plans on shutting the state down. We will see how many lives this will cost us.
Florida is considered the new virus epicenter...having more new cases than any other state in America.
I feel somewhat protected by being vaccinated. But will step up the precautions. However, they have said those who have gotten vaccinated, if they do get the virus...it will not be severe and they will survive it.
Florida reported 50,997 COVID-19 cases and 100 deaths over the last three days to the federal government as the state continues to see a surge in cases not seen since January, the month with the highest number of COVID cases since the pandemic began 18 mon

I'm sorry to hear about the spike. Things aren't looking very good here as well and still many people are unvaccinated. We've been under the movement control order for quite some time now. Can't wait for life to return to normal.

Vaccines does not keep the virus away. But we can live with it. It seems that we have to get the vaccine AND still wear masks, keep social distance and wash our hands with plenty of soap.

I'm sorry for that awful news. The cases are up in my part of the world, too.
