It's been 5 weeks since @GovRonDeSantis moved Florida to Phase 3, abolishing occupancy restrictions at restaurants and bars and making individual penalties unenforceable. Let's see how things are going.

1. Hospitalizations - slight rise but still at a low level(3.9% of capacity)

2. Cases - some increase, but cases are tracking with an increase in testing. Particularly notice that tests are at the same level as early August, but cases are FAR lower.

3. The positivity rate is nearly flat - some data dumps are affecting the 7-day average, but there's only the slightest increase.

4. CLI - the percentage of emergency department visits for COVID-like illness (purple dots) - has been bouncing between 2% and 3% since the end of August. No increase there.

5. Another measure of CLI is the weekly number of visits to emergency rooms for COVID-like symptoms. Again flat.

6. Occupied ICU beds (for any reason) - flat or slightly down
