Only problem with that theory is Florida got the third wave just as bad too in winter. This is our fourth. Covid Delta is not waiting until fall. Way too infectious. Everyone needs to get their vaccine. Also Florida has some really low vaccinated counties, tourism issues, and the border to Mexico.
I’d guess most states have really low vaccinated counties. The average of all counties equals over 50%, which is like Iowa and America.
Yeah, but a 30% vaccination rate in Cerro Gordo County, Iowa - population 42,066 is far, far different from a 30% vaccination rate in Duval County, Fla. - population 955,557.
Look for yourself. Iowa and Midwest have done good job of more universal rates geographically than the south. I will let you do the research on the county shades in the south and their presidential votes for Biden.
Duval is at 46% fully vaccinated. Unfortunately, the quickest path is for the morons that chose not to get vaxxed to just get covid.
Cerro Gordo is actually doing better than most, including your home county. Our worst counties are:
Sioux county has some of the best farmland in the state. I prefer we keep it. Also there was a joint Stanford and Harvard study that showed Sioux County Iowa was the number 1 place to raise a success child.
Davis and Can Buren better get their shit together before I come deer hunting 😊
What??? Florida borders the Atlantic and the Gulf of Mexico
The Florida county with the lowest rate of vaxxed is Columbia. Sits at the crossroads of I-75 and I-10 in the center of North Florida. About 73,000 people.
During the Black Death, the plague had caused few deaths on some counties of Europe instead of the common one third. For the most part those places spared were not well travelled.
Thank god pursuant to worldometers that Florida had zero new cases or deaths yesterday. What a turnaround!*And the models say they aren’t at peak yet:
'Bracing for the worst' in Florida's COVID-19 hot zone
Hospitals are overflowing with COVID patients in northeast Florida, the hot zone in the state's latest surge.
Welp, I had a second friend pass away from Covid overnight. He lived and contracted it in Florida but was hospitalized in Dothan Alabama. I wouldn't be surprised if Florida doesn't report his death in their numbers. Also wouldn't be surprised if Alabama doesn't either.
By pure numbers, the vast majority of those hospitalized by Covid are white. I know that and you know that.
Vaccine hesitancy is highest among black and Hispanic populations.By pure numbers, the vast majority of those hospitalized by Covid are white. I know that and you know that.
You got a link for that? I see this stat thrown around here a lot, but have yet to see any supporting evidence.
Point being Florida’s racial diversity is a factor in their case outbreak, and it’s not all maga rednecks.
One of the biggest problems per the pandemic now is that it's the highly vaccinated places that are also going to be the places where people will generally still be engaging in mitigation measures like masking and social-distancing.
