    “Is it possible to resume….”

    We removed the age ranges because they did not change for months. Escambia’s age range was, and still is, 0 to 105. “0″ indicates less than one year, so that will never go any lower, and it’s possible but unlikely the 105 will be surpassed.

    We removed the male/female number because they always stayed just either side of 50/50, They never indicated that locally there was a predominance among males or females.

    Thank you for your daily reports! Is it possible to resume including the ages, male or female in your 1st paragraph (or does the county not furnish that any longer). I think that additional info makes people more aware of the seriousness of this virus & that, sadly, it attacks all ages!
