Your stance on the numbers doesn’t surprise me since your default position is willful ignorance. You have a propensity to fabricate your own reality. The health workers have tried to document the numbers to try to have an understanding of the problem we face in an attempt to solve the problem. The numbers may certainly not be accurate since they have been been increasingly co-opted by the Republican leadership on the state level and federal level. But the numbers are indeed a tool for understanding the virus and the politics interfering with recovery from the virus.
The Department of Health in Walton County has reported a cumulative total of 60 new COVID-19 cases in Walton County over the weekend.
