Drumpf denies that Florida's children are getting sick. There are over 56,000!

Florida has more than 56,000 pediatric cases of COVID-19

President Trump at a rally Monday night declared that in some states “like nobody” younger than 18 is affected by COVID-19, but Florida’s pediatric report which was released Tuesday morning shows more than 56,000 people younger than 18 are infected in the Sunshine State.

“You know, in some states, thousands of people, nobody young. Below the age of 18, nobody," Trump said of the virus on Monday.

Data from the Florida Department of Health debunks the claim that people under 18 are unaffected by COVID-19.

Statewide there have been over 56,000 pediatric cases, over 700 hospitalizations and eight deaths.
