Just looked into the background of those numbers a bit. It does indeed look like Florida has undercount COVID deaths by at least 2,000 deaths. Looks intentional too.
Who the F is Gabriel Sherman?
A number of states are cleaning up their reporting because of over stated cases. Washington found a few that were suicide victims by gunshot that somehow were COVID deaths. Another state had two murdered people counted as COVID related deaths. The numbers will remain all over the place because some of this is political. I don't think it is a coincidence that blue states have higher COVID deaths and red states have lower ones - much of that because of population density. Could it also be how governments are counting? My conspiracy theory for the day.https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2020/05/26/coronavirus-death-toll-is-heavily-concentrated-in-democratic-congressional-districts/
Probably the wrong thread but I didn't want to start a Texas thread.I had to travel to Austin this week. Flying was less stressful than imagined. Planes were half full and the staff did a great job sanitizing everything. Boarded in smaller groups as well to keep social distancing. Attendants encouraged us to do our own wipedowns if we felt uncomfortable and came through to collect garbage far more frequently.Texas is weird. The state is open but Austin has a stay at home through the end of May. However, businesses are opening up anyways. It's a free for all.
Is there a site that posts trends on hospitalizations by state? That seems to be more relevant now --in conjunction with the initial points of cases/deaths.

Not a lot of conclusions in here, but an interesting discussion on why Europe and NA seem harder hit from a mortality perspective as compared to Asia. https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/researchers-ponder-why-covid-appears-more-deadly-in-the-us-and-europe-than-in-asia/2020/05/26/81889d06-8a9f-11ea-9759-6d20ba0f2c0e_story.html
How were the passengers? Hostile or friendly?And how were the flight attendants? Stressed? Relaxed? Nervous about catching it?
One of the replies is so misplaced in hindsight. I bet the individual wishes he could have it back: https://twitter.com/ScienceLt/status/1187830895660732421"We are probably not prepared for the meteor either. How about we focus resources on the daily problems we have instead of the 1 in 10,000 year event that is likely to not gallen anyways?"

Supporting tweets today that wearing a mask amounts to slavery and that the only good Democrat is a dead Democrat, the man has officially gone insane.
