    >>Why don’t you list Beulah as a part of our area.

    The Florida Dept of Health does not break the numbers down that far, so we can’t either because we don’t know which cases might be Beulah.

    Why don’t you list Beulah as a part of our area. We have signs posted by the Fl DOT on 9 mile and Mobile Hwy. Its the fastest growing area in Pensacola. If you can list Bellview then you can also start including Beulah. Thank you.

    Yup, the total number includes non-residents, while the area numbers do not.

    >why don’t the numbers add up in Escambia county?

    If you are adding cities — it’s because non-residents are not listed with a city. (Like people that live in Alabama that test in Escambia County.). There are currently 97 of those.

    If you are adding male and female — there are cases the health department has not listed. We believe they are mostly the non-residents.
