The situation here in Massachusetts is a little more critical than
apparently you are experiencing in Florida.* The slope of increases
in confirmed cases continues at the same rate, probably due to more
testing being done but also due to the general spread of the virus.

I thought for a while that the area we live in would be somewhat
isolated because it's in a rural area, well south of Boston and
any other highly populated towns or cities.* But it still has
increased rapidly with no slowdown yet apparent.* Doesn't take
much when one infected person can pass it on to 2,3 or more others
and each of them they pass it on to 2,3 or more others.


As of last night, we have fewer than 100 diagnosed cases of COVID-19 in
our semi-rural county, one of the lowest numbers in our state. I hope it
stays that way. Almost everyone seems to be wearing some sort of mask
when they go out. We do, and we each carry small bottles of Purell and a
pack of paper towels when we go out. We spray our hands repeatedly,
spray doorknobs and market carts before we touch them, stay as far away
from other people as we can, et cetera. We only go out every three or
four days, and usually it is just one of us.

Without getting into the particulars, I was alarmed yesterday by what
little of Trump's nightly re-election presentation I saw, and not by
"the facts" he was presenting. I don't know how any rational person can
still believe Trump is the sort of person we need in our nation's
highest political office.

For the survival of this country, it is vitally important for all of us
to successfully associate the substantial harm wreaked by COVID-19 with
Trump and thereby defeat him in the fall election.
