The new record came a day after seven other states also reported record rises in cases of COVID-19, the disease caused by the coronavirus that has killed nearly 130,000 Americans. Florida’s record rise in cases was more than any European country’s daily peak at the height of the outbreak there. The daily U.S. tally of cases stood at 53,483 late on Friday, below the previous day’s record 55,405.

No one we know

Yet death rates keep falling

There were 58 million flu cases and 730,000 flu hospitalizations from april-may 2019-2020. Those were more significant than 2.7 Covid cases and 200.000 Covid cases.

But how many deaths? And what is the age breakdown?

And 18 deaths, but case counts sound much more “dangerous”

I knew they could do it! DeSantis must be proud.

All young people who aren't social distancing because they think they are invincible.

I have a question. How can we actually trust the numbers of Covid infections? Is there an actual trusted source? I just am not sure I trust any of it any further. I certainly no longer trust the news regardless of slant. Keep in mind, I have followed all rules since March....

Florida is about 6% of US population and contracted 25% of Covid cases today. Positive cases nearly doubled in the past two weeks Governor DuhSantis.

When can the U.S. trade for Florida?! How about you Germany?! We want 10 pounds of Brats & Free Admission to your wildass Modern Art Museums...for the ENTIRE State...especially the Maskedless Ones.

Thank you, governor ron desantis. The problem always stems from the top. In a state with so many retirees, it’s almost like you are actively trying to kill the old people off.

Trump record measures at combating covid is certainly keeping America great.The most cases,the most deaths.

Hey, Florida! You are now officially naturally selected based on Darwin's theory. Think twice when you go to the polls because it's your Governor that got you sick, and DeSantos is a Trumpster. Everything Trump Touches Dies. ETTD

This is why

That’s because they are counting 1 confirmed case plus Any possible contacts and adding as Total cases. Video in my feed

Percent positive went down today by a bit. Over 70K tests conducted. Devoid of context, the number of cases is a worthless metric.

We dogs are much more better than Americans black and white❗

Deaths are pretty flat. Focus on the deaths.

BUÙLLLLSSSSHHHHIIITTT

Winning

Thank you freddie

old people central

Do not forget this is virus attacks from Chinese communist party to Americans people on purpose. Time to fight back and united whole world to make them accountable.

Florida (pop. 22 million) yesterday had over twice the number of new cases and deaths than the entire European Union (pop. 440 million). This is the result of bungling, playing politics, and lack of leadership from Trump and the GOP. The most embarrassing 4th of July in history

These people rioting then vacationing. The number of New York car tags in Florida is STAGGERING. 😔

We have to be the stupidest first world nation! The false myth that masks are ‘unamerican’ and the pathic governors that let people gather despite the growth number of case.

Let's just say assume you have it if you live in Florida. It'll soon be easier to say how many dont have it.

Florida, allegedly, is the victim of a plan to infect minority DEM voters at a high rate, to impede anti-Trump votes, in the NOV. 2020, election. Today July 4, will see a record rate of infections. The high rate, will be the veracity giving credibility, to an intentional plan.

Well done, Ronnie

DeSantis your May 20th victory speech is the pandemic version of the mission accomplished banner speech. Soulless You hide behind the Surgeon General and local officials. You are a coward. You job is to serve Floridians not Trump. DeSantisKillsFlorida DeSantisFailedFlorida

Florida Governor and Trump do not give a damn.

Keep pushing the fear. Otherwise Democrats don't have a chance on Nov 3rd

RonDeSantisFL Have you tried talking with any Gov (NY NJ Connecticut Washington Massachusetts) to learn how to properly contain the virus?🤔🤔 It seems you still don’t get it!🤓😷😷

GovRonDeSantis

Ron DeSantis EPIC FAIL

New cases of fabricated numbers. Smh

And GovRonDeSantis continues to kiss 💋 trump fat ^§§

Why China has spread the Chinese virus from Wuhan labs all over the world

Must be the result of the numerous protests all over the liberal South.

Good. It drops the mortality rate even more.

DeSantis 2024. He sets records

How many stayed overnight in hospitals?

An 11-year-old boy is Florida's youngest person to die from Covid-19 complicationsThe boy is the third minor in Florida to die of complications stemming from the novel coronavirus, according to health records. The others were a 16-year-old girl and a 17-year-old boy. Very sad, but they're by far the exceptions to the rule. That age group is least likely to have any serious symptoms, let alone serious complications. Yet they want kids to go back to school without a solution or a cure. Schools are crowded in FL s will increase. If kids are being abused it's just shedding light on unfit parents. Social services need to employ more people & remove kids from these households or provide aid. This is disheartening 💔
