      Bar graph shows current "Hospitalization rates of COVID-19 Cases in Florida, by Age." That is, what percent of positively tested individuals are hospitalized. 85+: 46.30% 75-84: 40.39% 65-74: 28.23% Comment: Obviously, people over 65 should avoid in-person teaching

    55-64: 16.17% 45-54: 10.4% 35-44: 7.01% Comment: But these odds don’t look good either for younger faculty either

      25-34: 3.82% 15-24: 1.85% 5-14: 1..56% 0-4: 3.58% Comment: decisions for faculty aged 30 to 105 are being made by looking at the numbers for students aged 15 to 24.

          Caveats: doing statistics during a moving pandemic is hard. Denominator is too low, perhaps by a factor of 4+, because many people haven't been tested. Numerator is too low because many tested people haven't been hospitalized yet.
