Yea, not a typo, leave it up to the reader to determine if that is a [sic] or an accurate stat.
Current news, Florida is reporting 35 pediatric hospitalizations a day from covid.

In the past week, Florida has averaged 1,525 adult hospitalizations a day, and 35 daily pediatric hospitalizations. Both are the highest per capita rate in the nation, according to Jason Salemi, an associate professor of epidemiology at the University of South Florida.

JIMHO, so much for the children aren't affected mantra.
On the super bright front, like California, Florida schools start in the next week or two.
oh, and DeSantis signing a no-mask thing for the schools.

...and they fudge the numbers to slant the narrative...not a surprise. Why no one trusts anyone or anything anymore...
Florida Department of Health accuses the CDC of OVERCOUNTING its 15,000 new COVID-19 cases on Sunday by adding 13,000 to the total
The Florida Department of Health took to Twitter to say the CDC misreported the state's weekend Covid data
Multiple news outlets reported the state set a new record of over 28,000 cases a day over the weekend based on CDC data
State DOH claims that the CDC combined multiple days' worth of data into one, leading to an overreport of 13,000 cases
Florida no longer reports daily COVID-19 cases, instead publicly revealing weekly counts every Friday

And they admit it but can't explain why....I can tell you why...
CDC admits it DID overcount Florida's COVID cases: Agency revises down state's weekend numbers from 28,000 to 19,000 but offers no explanation after falsely claiming 'record' infections
CDC has revised Florida's COVID-19 figures after the state Department of Health accused the agency of overcounting Sunday's totals
The federal health agency reported a new record of more than 28,000 cases on Sunday
Florida's DOH accused the CDC of combining multiple days' worth of data into one and that the true figure is really 15,000, which is an overcount of 15,000
The state reported 56,000 cases from Friday to Sunday and it is believed that the CDC split the total over two days - Saturday and Sunday - rather than three days
The CDC's updated Covid numbers, reporting 19,000 on Sunday, are still higher than the figures published by the DOH
