South Florida Master Thread

[shmoe joe]

Personally, I wouldn't go to FL in the near term, despite having antibodies.

I do have trips to CPT, EWR, ORD later this year, which we'll see if they pan out.

what other alternative can I do domestic for a quick weekend getaway (must include kosher food and cheap flying of course)?

Florida on Sunday reported the largest single-day increase in positive coronavirus cases in any one state since the beginning of the pandemic. New York's single-day record was 11,571 on April 15.

We are making a small street side firework show tonight in NMB if anyone wants to come with their kids.

how much hospitalization is the only number that matters.

With half the US imposing a 14 Day Quarantine, I think lots of ppl are looking for something like this. Unfortunately cant find anything as cheap as $26 to Florida

I would advise you to come down to Miami Beach.
Everything is pretty much okay down here.
The restaurants are all open with outdoor seating. Some restaurants are offering up to 20% off your bill. The hotel rates are incredibly low. Hotels that usually go for $500/Night are below $150/Night. I was on the beach this morning and it was heavily underpopulated.
There is a curfew in place at 10 PM but it really just is for stores.

I don't feel less safe now than I felt over the past few months. Don't get scared off by the news.

Depending on where you live, you might have 14 day quarantine when you get to FL and when you get back (NY).

hotels are always cheap in Miami in July and August as it is really hot and humid and it rains a lot in these months.

Miami is always humid. In Miami there is always rain in the forecast. It doesn't necessarily rain. Hotels are not usually cheap during these months

Source that the 14 day quarantine requirement has been lifted?

Reports that it has been enforced?

Does that make it not a law?

I am very happy that you do not feel any less safe... I promise you if you (Or your family member) ended up on the hospital you would feel (and in reality be) far less safe than you would have been over the prior few months. Please recognize that likelihood of acquiring COVID is a factor of level of riskiness /exposure multiplied by likelihood of other individuals having COVID. While low-risk activities might have been reasonable a month ago that is no longer the case. With tens of thousands and likely hundreds of thousands of individuals in South Florida having COVID, any unnecessary exposure puts your life and those of everyone around you in significantly greater risk at this time.

Why do you make such a charge?

Try turning of your news feed. It'll change your life. Literally.

Or you know, you can listen to someone like @YankyDoodle, who is actually on the front lines, working in a hospital in Miami, instead of sticking your head in the sand. It'll change your life. Literally.

I don't want to go down this political path and I won't.
My point here is Miami bus safe right now. You are free to disagree.
