Two main takeaways ( in my opinion) from the above post:

We have been detecting an average of 2.8 cases per day since March 17 and it hasn't risen sharply yet (fingers crossed)

If you take the .07 positives per test, and multiply that by the county population ( roughly 80,000), if everyone was magically tested right now, that would come to 5600 positive cases.

If you subtract non-residents and the nursing home cases we have 32 cases for Walton county.

At first, when you said that, I said "no way!". Then I did the math, and you are right. My reaction is mixed: Hooray that our social distancing is really working, and then, what a terrible tragedy is happening in the nursing homes.

And prisons. But I guess people care less about prisoners than grandparents.

I'm glad we don't have events happening with groups of people. We've seen evidence of one person infecting a lot of people at a funeral for example.

I worry about restaurant and retail staff. One asymptomatic employee could infect a lot of people over a period of time. We should have mandatory testing for workers who come in contact with the public.

As one that has worked in both of these professions, currently the retail end of it, I can say I am more worried about the masses of people that are here on vacation that I have seen in just the last few days that refuse to wear a mask, dont know what 6ft. is, and think "hey lets see if we can get up a group of more than 10 to go grocery shopping".I have worked beside the same people everyday for the last 2 months and would know if someone/any one in that group of people suddenly was missing and possibly sick. SO far I have been lucky and no one that I work with has gotten CoViD. But with what I witnessed this morning while trying to do my own grocery shopping, its not the locals you need to worry about. I sucked it up and went to work everyday for the last 2 months and wasnt really worried because all the locals coming in were doing the right thing but after that shopping trip this morning I feel a leave of absence because I dont feel safe anymore might be coming.

Thank you for keeping track of all of that, I have tried but I would forget a couple of days and give up screen shotting. I suggest though that much of the testing wasn’t done in a random manner and that the results are biased towards those who were showing symptoms and thus received a test. The number of cases walking around the county would likely be hugely lower.

I am with you on the hooray also though I am not certain as to what the reasons for it should be attributed. It can it least be allowed that social distancing wouldn’t increase transmission. If the numbers don’t blow up going forward then, in my mind, it calls into question most of what has been supposed about this virus. I won’t try to reopen a debate, I’ll simply hope, along with most everyone, that this virus and the surrounding calamity and fear go away.
