Does your city have COVID-19 cases? FL shares some local data for the first time

(Miami Herald)

On Saturday, Florida health officials gave the public a glimpse for the first time of where residents who have tested positive for COVID-19 live — not just at the county level, but at the municipal level, too.

In the first of its twice-daily reports Saturday morning, the Florida Department of Health included a chart that broke down the municipalities of residence for 265 cases statewide. The breakdown was limited to cases with no known links to travel and no known contact with another confirmed case. Link to charts below:

My best friend has 2 95 year old parents in assisted living apartment. She is going crazy worrying about them. Delivered there meds to them for 1 month. Their aide is allowed in but no one else. They cannot eat in general dining room. Really tough for all. I hope your dad keeps well and keeps his spirits up. And you, too!
