Lee County Government announced six new Coronavirus cases Friday, as the total number of residents who have tested positive climbed to 305.
The number who have recovered also jumped by 15 to 148 on Friday, the second day in which there have been double digit recoveries announced. There have been three COVID-related deaths in Lee County.
The county only discloses demographic information – age range and gender – of those who have tested positive. The information is reported on a 24 hour delay, so the nine new cases announced Friday are not included below.
But of the 299 cases reported through Thursday, 55 percent were female and 45 percent were male. There were 46 cases in people under 24, 121 between 25 and 44, 113 between 45 and 64, and 19 who were 65 or older.
Would be interested to know what the current amount of testing that is being done. If we are like the rest of the nation it should be increasing and if that’s the case then we truly are winning the war.
Supply and shortage have limit the testing in many nursing homes, youth centers and other living facilities. BY the way a war is a conflict between two enemies. It is dealt with on a battlefield and there are (IHL) International humanitarian law. the purpose is to maintain some humanity in conflicts, saving lives and reducing human suffering. Just to clear it up, the Coronavirus Pandemic is a national phenomenon, a disaster that effects humanity and our instincts should be to come together to meet these challenges for the good of mankind.
You can test all you want , the fact of the matter is people need to be reasonable….Wear your masks !!
It’s very simple
I will not wear a mask unless I have to. If you’re scared stay home. Death rate is less than .5 percent. They are listing some deaths as covid-19 even if they’re not sure. So the true numbers are not known.
Great attitude KJ, the mask is not to protect you its to protect the vulnerable in case you are an
unaware carrier. Must be awesome to be so self centered that the extreme inconvenience for you to wear a mask does not bother you.
Too shea !!!!! Lmao
LG stay home if you’re scared. That’s my point. Don’t make me have to wear a mask. I have to at work and that’s enough. Should we wear mask at all times.
Wow, just extremely sad! The Coronavirus Panademic will never be a laughing matter. People are sick and some are dying and you find humor! Praying for your soul
KJ, I am not scared I do go out and I wear a mask when in public. I think that if for no other reason than for respect of other people it is the right thing to do. You used the phrase “I have to work” I understand and it appears your employer requires mask because they are concerned for your safety. If there was only a .01% chance that you wearing a mask may prevent you or another from being infected isn”t it worth it. Somehow our society has forgotten about sacrifice and compassion. I’m not saying that all the rules and protocols are correct or even effective but all we can do is try what the recommendations are and see where it goes. Lastly I have not heard anyone say you should wear a mask at all times just when out in public. So that being said if you are scared to wear a mask why don”t you stay at home.
