Some states add them Monday or Tuesday depending. Not sure if this is the case of Florida or a very bad night.

that had to do with nursing home deaths. I use this site:
https://coronavirus.1point3acres.com/en.
which updates everyday, although my state doesn't update until between 4pm and 6pm. I'd love to know how the different states determine their numbers. I saw one state a while back, where the newly diagnosed was the exact number as the deaths.

The Mayor of PBC (and, the leadership in Palm Beach County is good), stated the safe home order is working here, and I believe them. I just called Lori Berman's office a bit ago, and she is a good Dem state rep, and was told it is mainly deaths not reported Saturday and Sunday for PBC.
