Psst, Commissioner, we had another COVID-19 death

   April 21, 2020

Since last night, Escambia County had another COVID-19 death –bringing the total to 9– and 22 new cases — the biggest increase since April 7.  Isn’t odd whenever Commissioner Doug Underhill downplays the virus cases and deaths, the numbers debunk his theories?  Will he send out an update to Escambia County voters?

Imagine what will happen when the test results come back from Southern Oaks in three days.

BTW: The county has yet to schedule a press briefing with medical professionals.  We’ve a week before when the commission meets.

Over the past 24 hours, the Florida had 835 new cases and 50 more deaths.
