This is our first opponent. To die in such a horrible manner at that age is bad enough. Your sarcasm is heartless. Be VERY glad this is not your son!

The agony you hear in their cries is unforgettable and piercing.

I know of no greater pain or anguish in the human experience.

The FL DOH holds the official numbers. A lot of bad data was produced because it's very easy to confuse a list of people who died with covid and those who died from covid. Covid has to be the primary diagnosis on the death certificate.

Hospitals are getting desperate and know how much more they will get from this designation. I dont trust any of the numbers from both sides here. People in control want to look good. People needing $ and fear want it to look bad. I wish we could just get honest data reported

If you think hospitals are willing to risk fines, penalties and reducing reimbursement rates just to make a few bucks now, you're wrong.

There's a Covid forum for this. This thread is to mourn the senseless loss of a player from a team we face.

Another Covid thread. Sweet. Prayers to the fam

Horrific. Prayers to his family.
