I agree with your assessment as a fellow Florida man.  ;-)

This is where the data comes from. It was created to track flu, but you can see there is a column for total deaths too. You can break it down by state, region, national.

    Harold,

    Just doing a quick calc.  We are looking at 72000 deaths in that
    time frame.  That is less than 1% increase.  That is a rounding
    error.  Being the yearly deaths increase naturally by 1% - 3% a
    year, one can argue we will have a smaller increase this year than
    normal.

    BTW - where did you get that graph.  I would like to keep track of
    this and share it with a few co-workers.

        Here are deaths in FL for weeks 1-17 for 2020 vs 2018:



    If you sum it up, there are 272 more total deaths during this time
    period in FL in 2020 than in 2018.

        I have to put this in perspective for at least the state of
    Florida.  Starting in February, if you believed the reports, we were
    suppose to be the next NY.  We had spring break, we have an older
    population, we have Orlando, and we have a republican governor.  Our
    hospitals were suppose to be over run and turning people away.  A
    republican governor by default is incompetent, so things were going
    to get out of hand quickly.

    Where are we today? 1827 deaths.  That is only about 2% of the total
    deaths in the US.  To dig even deeper, in 2017 (last year I can
    easily get) FL had 203,353 deaths for the year.  That comes out to
    about 50,838 deaths per quarter.  Assuming the 1827 is off by 20%
    due to under reporting (bit of a pissing match going on with state
    and ME's) that gives us about 2200 COVID-19 deaths.  Assuming there
    is no overlap between COVID-19 and normal deaths we get an increase
    of about 4% of deaths over 2017 deaths.

    That 4% is most likely closer to 1% over 2019 being there is a
    natural increase of about 1% - 2% per year on number of deaths in
    FL.  Not to mention the overlap of people who died of COVID-19 that
    would have died of something else anyway.

    We have almost 600,000 tests with only about a 7% positive rate.  I
    find that number very surprising being we are reportedly only
    testing the worst of the worst.

    The question is, why are we doing so well?  Is it the government,
    the people, the environment, pure dumb luck, or a combination?


    I for one am very happy with the FL results so far and see no reason
    not to start opening the state.

        Its all over. My mom sent me an Alex Jones video. I almost think
    matricide in some cases is the more humane solution The big question
    is whether or not that would be a covid related death and add to the
    graph

        Well the local minima seems to be taking nice orderly steps down
    each week except for a couple weeks back where it stayed about the same.
    But the trends do not seem to be going up.  So I will take that as a
    phase 1 win.  Hopefully we are on the road to eradication.  If the
    local minima steps continue on the same trend, it looks like they
    will hit the bottom in a month.... one month to go...   I think I
    have said that several times over the past few months...

    I would love if they still did the 7-day moving average. If you look
    at the logarithmic curve of total deaths, the curve is actually
    flattening. However, the linear curve is still rising.
    Since there is about a 2 to 2-1/2 hysteresis to the action/effect,
    we will know more sometime between May 24 and May 30. Much of the
    country is "opening up" around May 10, so if that negatively impacts
    the death rate, we won't really know about it for 14-18 days.
