Depends on the state. In Florida, there hasn’t yet been some huge spike in hospitalizations because many of the new cases are coming from the younger population.
Unfortunately some short sighted people both in power or from just your average day message board poster, are taking this to mean everything is fine and there’s really no cause for alarm.
These people are failing to take into account the likelihood that this is increasing the chance for spreading from the generally healthy younger population to more vulnerable folks so an upcoming alarming increase in hospitalizations is sadly looking like an inevitability rather than a projection.
If we as a country had taken this pandemic with the seriousness it required from the outset like other nations did, we would be having no issues with our precious college football season starting in the fall. Instead we have prolonged this crisis to the detriment of the health and livelihood of hundreds of thousands of people and will be dealing with it much longer than we ever should have.
Stay indoors whenever possible and wear your masks outdoors, people.
