Arizona's likely going to hit hospital capacity first.
lol
Literally nowhere in the US is doing that.
In Tampa it looks like you'll have to be wearing a mask in order to step into a business. Good. I get too many customers without one.
100 new cases pops up in Beijing and it goes into military style lockdown. Record breaking cases confirmed and Florida proceeds to open sports league and theme parks, sigh...
Samething for Cali, 4000+ cases yesterday and bars are allowed to open this weekend...wtf?

I give you credit for having the patience to put up with these A-holes in the first place. The burden on small businesses right now is immense.
Lick all the door knobs before tomorrow because Jerry Demings will mandate face mask.

Local news story with video including Miami Mayor. I don't think he's taking this seriously enough. Open phase 2 businesses - bars, strip clubs!!, casinos, movie theaters, indoor restaurant seating, etc. - means more massive spread. For example, look at the idiots at the beach not following social distancing or wearing masks (as seen in the video).

Edit: Our major Miami hospitals seeing a surge and little or no ICU beds available. Miami is about to be a real shitshow.
Florida Sets Another Daily Record With 3,800 New Coronavirus Cases, Nearly 90K Total
Florida set another daily record for coronavirus cases Friday with more than 3,800, pushing the state’s total to nearly 90,000. With 3,822 new COVID-19 cases, the state’s total rose to 89,748, according to figures released by the Florida Department of Health. It was the second straight day the...

Shit man. My conservative coworker, who is stubborn but I still have love for just because we've known each other for so long, insisted on going on her universal studios vacation this week with her 5 kids and mother. They're there now and I just can't stop thinking about how fucking stupid they are for going and how they're coming back to a state that has done a great job at managing it (Kansas.... Thank God for our liberal governor).
My dad continues to work as a dentist in Miami-Dade despite me pleading with him to put a halt to his business until things calm down.
He's apparently taking basically every precaution he could (mask + goggles, constant sterilization of the office, avoiding contact with my mom when it gets home until he takes a shower, along with putting all his clothes in the wash ASAP), but I don't think it will be enough when he inevitably operates on the mouth of someone who has COVID-19.
And I'm even moreso worried about my mom, who has asthma. She is staying at home but if my dad gets infected, it is in all likelihood she'll become infected as well.
I've tried everything I can think of, but he's not listening to me. =(

I hear you, its such a shitty situation all around. We are nervous (I'm from CT) up here around NYC that our case load will be re-ignited with the surge down in FL as well. I really hope Disney thinks twice about opening next month.
I wouldn't be too sure. Apparently ICU's are at ~75% capacity in FL currently.

Another 3800 cases. Insane.
We need to roll back our opening immediately. Back to Phase 1 or a complete shutdown to get this under control.
I really wish my parents didn't live in Jacksonville. My father needs a heart transplant, and if he gets this, he's basically dead. I hate DeSantis and all the idiots down there who let this get out of control.
that is not looking good, even if the state locks down, it would take a few weeks for it to take effect
GOOD LORD!!! Please stay say Florida-Era!!! Words cannot describe how horrid Desantis and the rest of his death cult are handling this.
Well, you know, this wouldn't have happened if we just didn't report any of the cases. /s
Rarely has the "Bugs Bunny sawing off Florida" GIF been more appropriate.

This is tragic, and it truly does fall on Florida's leadership and the way they have ignored the scientific community's guidance. My heart goes out to people living there, and that includes those not wearing masks because some unscientific, greedy dipshit told them they "didn't work". Fuck false idols.
it's so frustrating how many people here are justifying his decisions too...
A small portion of the increases probably are. It was an unavoidable risk and consequence of the protests but from what I saw most were good about masks and spacing.
Protests in Miami were ever *huge*, I think max they got up to 1000 people in an outdoors environment.
How shitty was it for you, and how you'd feeling now?
I keep contemplating quiting my job. Most of my co-workers and customers are good about masks. But, there are the occasional dumb asses. And I don't really need the job.
I spent like 5 days with flu like symptoms(coughing, sinus, runny nose) plus I had funny sensations when breathing, it was like breathing vick vaporub.
Symptoms went completely away on the 10th or so day.
I spent a total of 15 days quarantined in my room playing video games and watching Netflix.
Overall it wasn't bad for me but I'm on my 30s and very healthy.
Have a wedding in two weeks north of Orlando. Carefully watching this one, might have to cancel if PA starts demanding self quaratine after travel to MCO.
No one should be going to any weddings, especially in Florida. Do not go to that wedding, the idea of holding one right now is insane
Apple is actually doing something by re closing their stores.

S&P 500 ends roller-coaster session lower, but ekes out gain for the week
A number of headlines raised concern about a resurgence in the coronavirus and a slowdown in the economy's recovery.
We have to deal with a big Trump supporter at work, and she was going on and on how hospitals get $9,000 for a COVID diagnosis/bed placement and $36,000 for a COVID death being the reason the numbers are so high. It's a ruse to make Trump look bad because these people are dying from other things they just happen to have COVID. Do you know how grossly stupid you have to be to go around declaring this?
MN has done a lot of testing post protests here and no real spike, and there were a lot more people protesting here than in Florida.
This is because of idiots going to bars and not wearing masks.
Wow... who would have thunk? I mean with such good leadership and handling of how to stop the spread I am completely surprised by this...
Another reason I'm glad I've moved far far away from Florida (and honestly don't live in a red state. Though apparently our state is having problems too and I think we handled it far better than Florida).
