I am tired of debating with you about HOA's and their detriment to ham radio in general. Thankfully, now retired in NY I don't have to live in a HOA community. However, when you start talking about Covid and bring politics into the discussion I have to tell you that you don't know what you are talking about. My daughter is a nurse at a hospital in Tampa. They have to have a separate floor for Covid care and they try to isolate them from the rest of the patients and staff. So, Florida is a HUGE state with many masses of people. I don't believe that your population quite approaches that of The NY metropolitan area yet and while NY was one of the first to deal with Covid 19 due to the vast numbers of people traveling to our state from all over the world, we seem to have gotten it under control. I just spent a wonderful week in your glorious state. Where I live in NY 99% or more of the people wear masks, not to protect themselves, but to protect their neighbor. I rarely saw anyone wearing a mask in your glorious wonderland (By the way, love the high humidity and temperatures approaching 90 in October. I felt like a house plant in a greenhouse). I take it that you don't like Democrats from what you wrote. That explains everything I need to know.

Nothing to do with the subject about which you claim “tired of debating” but Florida had 2800 cases yesterday, NY had almost 6000. And that isn’t a snapshot but rather the general trend. Keep up the good work there

Wait until February. If you’re still alive, resist the temptation to escape NY like everyone else there seems to want. We’re full already. And reasonably health.
