Of course the big difference there being NY only tested those with symptoms or those being around confirmed cases, IIRC. That’s why comparing any stats to early NY is meaningless. FL is testing anyone who shows up.

My wedding was scheduled for November and we just decided to push it back to April 2021 unfortunately. It was really difficult trying to continue planning then throw in the fact there was no guarantee there wouldn't be restrictions on occupancy come November so I can relate.

Well, cuz the capacity exists. If they were testing everyone at the rate Florida is, they'd be having like 30k - 40k a day I bet. Some of it is capacity, some of it is willingness. Either way raw numbers never work.

Love how China still has "85k" cases. They're doing so well!

Who would've thought that the best ammunition against a pandemic isn't science, but strict, authoritarian control of information.

China is second rate. Kim Jung Un has 0.
