With more than 2,000 patients hospitalized and hundreds in ICUs, 'Miami is now the epicenter of the pandemic,' one infectious disease expert said

With more than 2,000 patients hospitalized and hundreds in ICUs, "Miami is now the epicenter of the pandemic," one infectious disease expert said Monday, comparing the South Florida metropolitan area to the city where the pandemic originated.

"What we were seeing in Wuhan -- six months ago, five months ago -- now we are there," Lilian Abbo, with the Jackson Health System said during a press conference hosted by the Miami-Dade County mayor. The Chinese city of Wuhan, the original epicenter of the coronavirus crisis, went into a 76-day lockdown in late January after a deadly outbreak infected and killed thousands. The first known cases of the virus were first detected in the city in December.

And now, Trump doesnt want any figures going to CDC only to Washington Are you kidding me They will definitely distort the numbers the same way Desantis did in the beginning of Florida so he could have spring break!! The master learns from grasshopper

Hard to imagine why. 🙄

More proof of failed leadership by realDonaldTrump. America is listening to Dr. Fauci.

Miami is the party city. Not surprised it's out of control.

I wish them quick recovery...

DeSantisResignNow

Now compare Miami to New Zealand.

GovRonDeSantis marcorubio SenRickScott what the you doing? — tweeting about China isn’t going to make it go away Floridacoronavirus

DeSantis is not leading intelligently, so it will be up to the people. They can’t not know what it will take to make it through this. Unless they choose to follow our “you’re going to go through some things” fearless leader.

What percentage is dying from this

That's because of the pathetic leadership by GovRonDeSantis DeSantisResignNow DeSantisBetrayedFlorida DeSantisLiesFloridiansDie

How many hundreds? We want precise numbers, not vague references. What kind of journalism is this?

Miami is a Petrie dish for 😷🦠😷🦠

Not surprised. It’s always Florida. Smh. They more concerened with having fun than a deadly disease spreading.

Hmm take a look at the headline photo and let us all figure out why that is.

Cnn idiots 🤣🤣🤣

Oh lord 🤦‍♀️

That is still China. Where all this started. Nice try China.

Glad I left when I did.

More people are being killed in demicratic cities then are dying in wars and you think they're doing a good job CNN just like you think you're doing a good job you cant beat Nick at nite you people suck nobody listens to you besides the people in California New York FAKE NEWS

Let’s see the cases to deaths ratio from the past 2 months. I’m guessing it’s still going to be lower then 1% for anyone under 80.

You keep showing the beach areas. Are the tourists getting that sick while there or are all these cases Floridians? I wouldn’t think vacationers would stand in line for tests unless they had symptoms

Which one?

Is it number one or number nine?

Love natural selection

That’s some good scare tactics!!! If you are in Miami go look for yourself and investigate all the Hospitals . They are empty!!! Wake USA Rise up!!!

No

Somebody call pitbull... he should be able to do something about this.

It's crazy to see how many supporters Trump still has. You know the ones that don't believe this shit is real.

Shoulder-to-shoulder on the beach, not shocking. Not even surprising. No worry, RonDeSantisFL has it all under control.

Fear porn CNN only talks about the numbers that sounds scary. People under 65 have very little to worry about. All we have to do is not send sick people into nursing homes.

So, to date, what’s the top ten list look like of deaths per 1K?

Go out and celebrate, Floridians. It’s just a hoax. More more more!

Do we all really believe the wuhan/China numbers? Amazing how s suddenly just stopped mid March? Their line goes to zero and straight. And that beach pic needs to be shown from above.

Gross

Bill gates saw this virus from a mile away five years ago but no one was listening or they listened but no one paid attention now here we are,almost telling us i told y'all so,he must 'hate'how right he was.

Hospitalized for elective surgeries. Liars.

How long did they say Covid can survive in water?🤨🤨🤨🤨🤨

Those darn Americans are expressing their rights and freedoms. They must be stopped. If they don’t comply with the government's infringements, they should be fined! Then if that doesn’t work, they should have all their rights revoked! Listen to your officials and experts!

Sadly..all these karens and bobs had to catch a tan..it was so essential to catch a ray of sunlight..who cares about health risks!?

pdacosta I get dead for April 1. Get 'gamma', the numerator for R(0) from many papers, starting with Gabriel Leung Jan 23. IFR is from CDC. Then latest dead from state, adjusted by CDC excess dead report. Then calibrate via adjusting 'beta' to get average R(0) to date. Standard SIR.

Our Trump-loving GovRonDeSantis needs to shut everything back down. This is out of control. It is evident, people are not making the right choices ron.

'SUPPOSE we HIT THE BODY with a TREMENDOUS - whether it’s ULTRAVIOLET or just VERY POWERFUL LIGHT - and supposing you BROUGHT THE LIGHT INSIDE THE BODY, which you can do either THROUGH THE SKIN, or, in some OTHER WAY... Sounds INTERESTING! 💫🇺🇸TotallyUnderControl LikeAFlu🇺🇸💫

OperationMockingbird

Stop spreading fear and lies!! People do your research!!

China is harming the world with Chinese viruses. This is a war! People who love peace must not be taken lightly!

Sleepless Nights for everyone!😱More than 3.3 million people have now tested positive nationwide but the true number of infections could be much higher, experts have said, as at least 40% of those who contract the virus show no symptoms, according to a new estimate by the US”

Germ warfare

BLM . Riots caused most of this spread .on the streets for months .

Enjoy more on the beaches now.

'One expert says' and what about the rest of the 'experts'? Also, what qualifications are required to be a CNN source expert?

I have a good friend that lives here I will ask her.' She won't lie!!

And look at these fools still going to beaches and still gathering in large numbers. They must listen to their medical staff. The focus must be on saving More and more lives These countries must learn from China. We won the war against Covid-19 because we listen to medical staff

Fake News

Well just gonna say. Those protesting about COVID being a hoax. You really are cancer.

You do know that most of these people are tourist they all live there?
