Making some sense of the Dashboard:

Just some observations:
Select County on the Dashboard to determine the number of non-resident/resident cases that are positive. In Seminole County yesterday, that number was 404. (It will change at 11:00 am) For non-resident numbers it's 6. It has been six for quite a while. The non-resident number never seems to change, so I can't tell you if they stopped tracking that number.
What is missing, unless someone shows me where it went to, is the number of PENDING tests. At least, with the pending test number you could gauge what might be happening in the background. But, you can come close to finding something you can use, by tracking another number:
To find a Total Number of tested people, select county, and then select the tab for Florida testing. There you will find the only numbers you can use to track what's happening. The Positive number will include both resident and non resident. For Seminole County, that number is/was 410.
There is also a number for Total People Tested: 9524 for Seminole County. That's a number I intend to follow each day, to determine how many people are being tested in the county. If they're only testing sick people, that number will rise in the wake of the business openings. That's what I'm trying to determine, to see when we begin a second wave, if we have one.

(6,589 posts)It has been unusable on mobile (Android) because it was a jumbled mess.
Today I was pleasantly surprised to see that all the cells that were getting compressed into long skinny columns a few characters wide were reformatted so each was on its own page, & I could easily navigate through the pages & choose a county or zip code on the interactive map.
Basically, it looks like they finally built a mobile version of the site & it seems to work really well.

(46,703 posts)They don't always match. Yesterday, the Dashboard number was higher, and the day before that, the WFTV number was higher.
And today, after the Dashboard updated the County numbers, it shows no increase in Covid cases, but two deaths. That's why we need to look at the trends.
