Florida is the New Coronavirus Epicenter

Written By: William Sergio

Florida COVID-19 Surge

In the past seven days, COVID-19 levels have risen 51%. From July 30th to August 5th, the state of Florida has reported over 130,000 new COVID-19 cases. On Friday alone, the CDC reported 23,903 new cases in Florida. Sadly, this is the state of Florida’s highest single-day total since the beginning of the Coronavirus pandemic.

Florida is the COVID-19 Epicenter

Recently, Florida became the epicenter of the delta variant surge. In Florida, 44% of the ICU beds were occupied. Only 11% of Florida’s ICU beds are available. Also, children have been getting infected with the delta variant. This recent development has forced many school boards to consider reinstituting protective measures such as mask-wearing for students returning to class this fall.

Protective Measures against COVID-19

There are basic preventative measures that you and your family can take to minimize the risk of contracting COVID-19. First, you can wash your hands after touching doorknobs, doors, shaking hands. Also, you can carry around hand sanitizer to make it easier to clean your hands. Next, you can wear a mask. At the moment, there is no longer a mask mandate, but there is evidence that shows that wearing a mask can reduce the chances of contracting COVID-19.

Then, you can practice social distancing. Concerts and other public venues increase your chances of catching COVID-19. Try to minimize or avoid exposure as much as possible. Finally, you can get the COVID-19 vaccine. Vaccines are readily available to everyone for free. There is some evidence that shows that vaccines will help reduce symptoms of COVID-19. Vaccinated people are still contracting the delta variant, but they aren’t hospitalized at the same rate as unvaccinated people.
