The number of COVID-19 cases in Florida has doubled week over week, from 23,631 to 48,603, but Gov. DeSantis says he is not considering ordering any further closings.

"The hospitals, and I both predict that those who were infected then, if they need hospitalization, will be beginning to show up at the end of this week and into the next," said Dr. Douglas Holt, the head of the Hillsborough County health department.

Hospitals report the number of available beds has declined to about 20%.
