Three? I thought they were just in Sumter? Baitball Blogger May 2020 #4
Lake, Marion and Sumter jimfields33 May 2020 #5
So it comes down to tracking them through the zip codes. Baitball Blogger May 2020 #6

Negative yay. He got the test because it was required before another minor procedure he is getting. They told us it would be spit but ended up being the swab. Got results in under 48 hours. The doctors office switched providers in the middle of this. It kinda feels like everyone is making it up as they go along. My confidence level is not high. Good luck to you and fam bb blogger.

How did they get away with building it when they had to deal with three different county building codes?

Unless the numbers I collected was new cases. If it was new cases, then it's worrisome.

32159 - 16
32162 - 54
32163 - 18
34731 - <5
34785 - 9

I'll check in tomorrow to see if the numbers change.

There's a small amount in Marion, more in Lake, and even more in Sumter. They build in sections, so that makes the building code thing easier but in addition to that there's big money and political influence involved with the developer.

Something about the numbers not adding up and State government calling on counties not to release death numbers from COVID... Many reports with redacted information.
Makes the state look bad..
COVID? no pneumonia
COVID? no "heart disease"
COVID? no "renal failure"... etc...

False statements might be arranged according to their degree under three heads,
fibs, lies, and statistics.
