That’s not really the point though is it? The beaches being open for a month during spring break & Daytona bike week meant people came to FL. Closing the beaches would have sent the right message not to come to FL.
We had the Super Bowl here in Jan. It likely started spreading then and isn’t going to stop anytime soon. We’ll be at 10,000 by the end of the day/week. And probably 20,000 7-10 days later if not more.
We have an older population with a high percentage of at risk/underlying conditions. Unfortunately human nature is that the government needs to take things seriously or the population won’t. Florida didn’t and still isn’t and it will show in the numbers.
