Miami, Florida's second-largest city, is set to host the Republican National Convention next month. But some have questioned the wisdom of holding a large gathering in a state where the pandemic has been raging out of control.
WASHINGTON — With Florida adding coronavirus infections at the rate of about 10,000 per day, Miami has emerged as one of the most significant coronavirus hot spots in the United States, according to an internal Trump administration document reviewed by Yahoo News.
President Trump, who last year switched his primary residence from his New York City penthouse to his Palm Beach golf resort, will be visiting South Florida on Friday. His arrival there, for fundraising and other events, will be shadowed by a warning from Dr. Anthony Fauci of the White House coronavirus task force that Florida had “jumped over a couple of checkpoints” in reopening.
Miami-Dade is one of 10 counties described as an “area of concern,” a designation that according to the CDC means that the “county’s disease burden is high and still growing.” It is by far the most populous county on the list, which also includes — in descending order of incidence per 100,000 people over the last two weeks — Yell County, Ark.; Mineral County, Colo.; Santa Cruz County, Ariz.; Victoria County, Texas; Nueces County, Texas; Chicot County, Ark.; Galax City, Va.
Martha Baker, a registered nurse, is president of SEIU Local 1991, a health care union representing more than 5,000 employees from Jackson Health, which is Miami-Dade’s largest hospital system. She told Yahoo News she believes COVID-19 spread because restrictions were loosened too early. Jones has since created her own database; when it was visited by Yahoo News, Miami-Dade was shown to have recorded about 27,400 new cases during the time period covered by the CDC’s “area of concern” designation.
