Sure are a lot of blacked outs and “no longer tracked.”

This is alarming - looks like a testing data dump but not sure. The 11/5/20 spike of 237 positive cases isn't reflected in the recent WCEOC numbers...

Time for a county mask mandate. Masks reduced cases by 75% in troubled areas where masks are required. If the county officials are too afraid then businesses at least can require them. Our governor was wrong to act like it doesn't exist. It is up to us to take care of each other.

 

[James Bentwood]

About 70% of Americans say they feel it is important civic duty to wear a mask. With a little effort we can bring most of the rest to join in. If it saves even one life it is worth it. But will likely save tens if not hundreds of thousands of lives. Sorry but anti-maskers need to be shamed into hiding if they won't wear one. There is no reason to tolerate such deadly behavior.

As long as anyone in this county feels it's a violation of their constitutional rights to infect others then the BCC will back them.

Walton County is now the #1 county in Florida with largest per capita COVID-19 infections. Please wear those masks!

I wonder if this has anything to do with the spike.
Florida prison reports over 300 inmates positive for COVID-19

Florida’s prison system has shown a large increase in recent days in the number of inmates with COVID-19, with Walton Correctional Institution in DeFuniak Springs reporting Monday that 315 new inmates tested positive.

We are over twice as infected as every other county but one. Twice as much! Either we have a really bad problem or the rest of the counties are better at fudging their numbers. (Or both.)
