    Default Orlando area in 'crisis mode' as COVID-19 cases spike

    The mayor of Florida's Orange County, Jerry Demings, said Monday that that county, which includes Orlando, is "now in crisis mode" as COVID-19 cases surge the area.


    Demings said at a press conference Monday that after a conference call with counties and hospitals within the region, "all of them were sounding their alarms," as they are seeing "alarming numbers of critically ill individuals entering their hospitals."

    Demings noted that the positivity rate in the county for COVID-19 tests is now at 13.96 percent, which has drastically changed from the 4.28 percent reported a month earlier. The county is reportedly seeing nearly 1,000 new COVID-19 cases per day. The mayor called the numbers "extraordinary."

    "Those are the numbers we saw at the highest peak last year," Demings said. "A thousand a day is extraordinary. We are now in crisis mode."

    AdventHealth had 862 COVID-19 patients hospitalized on Monday across the Central Florida division, near the peak of about 900 patients the health system saw in January.

    Over 90% of AdventHealth’s hospitalized COVID-19 patients are unvaccinated, said Dr. Victor Herrera, chief medical officer of AdventHealth Orlando.

    Orlando Health’s hospitals had 415 COVID-19 patients as of Monday, with 61 in the ICU, according to Dr. George Ralls, senior vice president and chief medical officer. The amount of ICU patients has doubled from last Wednesday, and the number of total patients has risen by over 100.

    Ralls said around 90% of the Orlando Health’s COVID-19 patients are unvaccinated.

    If anything like 10% of the hospitalizations are fully vaxxed then these experimental substances are failing even faster than I have been thinking.

    Florida really needs better leadership.

    It is unconscionable that their governor signed a law forbidding local governments from taking steps to prevent the spread of COVID deaths.

    Man, it is just going to take a loooooonnnng time for people to get it on this one.

    Future generations will look back on this period and genuinely wonder why the scientific community produced an end to this problem in record time, but "freedom lovers" refused to take part.

    Actually they will remember the failure of the Biden Administration in this matter. Just saying.

    This is the same scientific community that both was all in for gain of function research, which massively fucked humanity in just a few years, and then claimed that there is no chance that this bug was made in the lab....they lied.

    It is a well earned lack of trust that is the problem, not the call to freedom.

    A Modest Proposal For Separating Blue States From Red

    Dear Red-State Trump Voter,
    Let’s face it, guys: We’re done.


    It is a tragedy that so much of the work that so many men and women toiled at for so long to make this a better country, and a better world, has been thrown away, leaving us all in such needless peril.

    This is why our separation in all but name is necessary.

    didn't disneyworld ease up on the mask mandate for vaccinated people? but i'm betting you idiots are going to keep blaming the unvaxxed to keep up your bullshit narrative, aren't you?
    A sad commentary on we, as a people, and our viewpoint of our freedom can be summed up like this. We have liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans, yet those very people look at Constitutionalists as radical and extreme.................so those liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans must believe that the constitution is radical and extreme.

    You flunked math too, huh sicko? Even if it was 10% (it's not), here's a little clue for you...... 10% is less than 90%.
