Florida aggressively locked down visitor access to nursing homes pretty early on, which is where the vast majority of deaths happen.
Wearing masks on beaches and in restaurants etc may slightly impact the case count but really doesn't impact mortality in the same way that an outbreak in a care home does.
- nradov 6y agoIs there any reliable evidence that wearing masks on beaches even impacts the case count? Data from actual contact tracing seems to indicate that outdoor transmission is close to zero.
- bpodgursky 6y agoYeah, I didn't feel like getting into that particular battle, but should have been more explicit; wearing masks outdoors has 0 impact on anything.
- pvarangot 6y agoI'm not sure where I read about this but Florida also did better in prisons.
